Morse Code is Alive and Well

Before the internet, cellphones and party lines, there was the
radiotelegraph. This method of communication allowed messages to be sent over long distances using a series of dots and dashes. Join cultural history volunteers and ham radio operators Earle Cate, N0ISB, and Tom McMichen, K0KUA, for a brief discussion of the history of radiotelegraphy and a demonstration of message sending using wireless transceivers and old-fashioned code keys. We’ll even have a practice key available for you to try out without actually being “on the air.”
