Ron, Thank you for the explaination. Although I have now been able to produce a reliable Morse transmitter good to a respectable depth, I am still not convinced that this communications method will best suite me. I may install this as an alternative to short range voice, to be used in an emergency as a communications link that looks to be more user friendly than tapping the hull. I did come across a chart that makes transmitting a message in morse easier...but translating a recieved message back into something that makes sense and doing this fast is a whole new ball game!

Who among us has a full listing for all the letters and numbers? I can see tapping the boats hull to convey a simple status report. > > > > David Bartsch > > > > ________________________________ > > Climb to the top of the charts!
