  2. Beat frequency oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_frequency_oscillator

    Beat frequency oscillator. In a radio receiver, a beat frequency oscillator or BFO is a dedicated oscillator used to create an audio frequency signal from Morse code radiotelegraphy (CW) transmissions to make them audible. The signal from the BFO is mixed with the received signal to create a heterodyne or beat frequency which is heard as a tone ...

  3. Morse code abbreviations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code_abbreviations

    Morse code abbreviations are used to speed up Morse communications by foreshortening textual words and phrases. Morse abbreviations are short forms, representing normal textual words and phrases formed from some (fewer) characters taken from the word or phrase being abbreviated. Many are typical English abbreviations, or short acronyms for ...

    The Conet Project was rereleased in a five-disc 15th anniversary edition in April 2013 with a new booklet, featuring detailed photographs of a numbers station voice sample controller, a Sprach-Morse-Generator der HVA des MfS (Hauptverwaltung Aufklärung des Ministeriums für Staatssicherheit der DDR) and one-time pad samples of the type used by the East German Stasi.

  5. Morse code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code

    This Morse key was originally used by Gotthard railway, later by a shortwave radio amateur [ 2 ] Morse code is a telecommunications method which encodes text characters as standardized sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes, or dits and dahs. [ 3 ][ 4 ] Morse code is named after Samuel Morse, one of the early ...

  6. Telegraph sounder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegraph_sounder

    Telegraph Sounder. A telegraph sounder is an antique electromechanical device used as a receiver on electrical telegraph lines during the 19th century. It was invented by Alfred Vail after 1850 to replace the previous receiving device, the cumbersome Morse register [1] and was the first practical application of the electromagnet.

  7. QSA and QRK radio signal reports - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QSA_and_QRK_radio_signal...

    The QSA code and QRK code are interrelated and complementary signal reporting codes for use in wireless telegraphy (Morse code). An enhanced format, SINPO code, was published in the ITU Radio Regulations, Geneva, 1959, [1] but is longer and unwieldy for use in the fast pace of Morse code communications.

  8. Acoustic telegraphy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_telegraphy

    Acoustic telegraphy (also known as harmonic telegraphy) was a name for various methods of multiplexing (transmitting more than one) telegraph messages simultaneously over a single telegraph wire by using different audio frequencies or channels for each message. A telegrapher used a conventional Morse key to tap out the message in Morse code.

  9. Pulse-code modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-code_modulation

    t. e. Pulse-code modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent analog signals. It is the standard form of digital audio in computers, compact discs, digital telephony and other digital audio applications. In a PCM stream, the amplitude of the analog signal is sampled at uniform intervals, and each sample is quantized to the nearest ...
