Andy, morse code is still used a fair bit but it tends to be mostly on the amateur bands/frequencies. Many operators prefer it to speaking and they are very proficient at it. Whilst it is mostly used as explained above it seems to be creeping into other frequencies including 27.555 USB and its nearby numbers and also the UK FM. I have heard it a few times but like you cannot translate it. Over the last few months there have been some very strange sounds popping up on the UK40, from what sounds like people sending faxes to repetitive beating sounds. Morse is one of the more normal ones! |

I would have thought that the morse code on channel 19 would be mostly swearing. |
