“THANK YOU” in Morse Code
− ···· ·− −· −·− / −·−− −−− ··−
Courtesy on the wire has its own shorthand: operators send TU at the end of a contact, or the number 73 — telegraph code for "best regards" since the 1850s. The full phrase is for ceremony; TU is for traffic.
Letter by letter
T − H ···· A ·− N −· K −·−
Y −·−− O −−− U ··−
The timing that makes it Morse: a dash lasts exactly three dots. The gap inside a letter is one dot long, the gap between letters is three, and the slash marks a seven-unit word gap. Want to hear it slower or flash it as light? Open it in the morse code translator.
