Letter by letter
How "George" is built in Morse
George is 6 characters — 6 dots and 8 dashes in all. Here is each letter with its Morse code so you can send or write it one symbol at a time:
Sending George by sound or light
George is 53 Morse units long, counting a 1-unit gap inside each character and a 3-unit gap between letters. At a beginner's 5 words per minute that is 12.7 seconds of signal; an experienced operator at 25 WPM sends it in 2.5 seconds.
| Speed | 5 WPM | 13 WPM | 20 WPM | 25 WPM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Time to send | 12.7 s | 4.9 s | 3.2 s | 2.5 s |
Why the gaps matter
Run the marks together with no letter gaps — as happens on evenly spaced beads or an engraving — and George becomes --..---.-.--... That string can be split into real Morse characters in 5,236 different ways, so a reader cannot tell which one you meant. Keep a visible gap between letters, or read why most Morse jewelry is unreadable.
Saying it out loud
Morse is not the only way a word gets through a noisy channel. When an operator has to spell George by voice, each letter becomes its NATO phonetic word — the same alphabet used by aviation and the military, and the reason “B” is never mistaken for “D”:
Golf · Echo · Oscar · Romeo · Golf · Echo
Stressed as GOLF — ECK oh — OSS car — ROW me oh — GOLF — ECK oh. The full table is on the NATO alphabet page.
Turn George into something you can keep
