About InMorseCode.com

InMorseCode.com is a free, standards-compliant Morse Code translator and reference platform implementing the International Morse Code standard (ITU-R M.1677-1). The site provides accurate bidirectional conversion between text and Morse code, real-time audio playback, and practical examples for letters, numbers, punctuation, and common phrases. Designed for students, amateur radio operators, emergency communication practice, and developers, InMorseCode.com combines an intuitive interface with precise international standards to serve as both a tool and an authoritative learning resource.Maintained by Janney, a developer and signal processing expert, verified January 2026.

A Compelete Morse Code Reference Table

This comprehensive reference table shows the International Morse Code representation for all letters, numbers, and common punctuation marks. Each character consists of dots (short signals) and dashes (long signals), with timing ratios standardized by the ITU.

International Morse Code Encoding Standard

InMorseCode.com implements the International Morse Code specification defined by ITU-R Recommendation M.1677 for bidirectional text encoding and decoding. The translator converts alphanumeric input into standardized signal sequences using time-based dot and dash representations to ensure interoperability with real-world communication systems.

Core Encoding Model

The translation engine follows these internationally recognized timing rules:

  • Dot duration = 1 time unit
  • Dash duration = 3 time units
  • Intra-character gap = 1 time unit
  • Inter-character gap = 3 time units
  • Word gap = 7 time units

These parameters define the fundamental structure of Morse signaling and are used across:

  • Amateur and professional radio communication
  • Aviation and maritime signaling systems
  • Emergency communication protocols
  • Morse code training and certification programs

System Implementation Notes

The translator supports full bidirectional conversion between human-readable text and Morse signals, including automatic direction detection, real-time audio generation, and standardized character spacing. Unsupported or non-standard symbols are excluded from encoding to maintain strict compliance with international specifications.

How to Use Morse Code Translator

1. Enter Your Text or Morse Code

Type plain text or Morse symbols (Dot . and Dash -) into the input box. Use spaces between letters and words.

2. Choose Translation Direction

The translator automatically detects whether you’re converting text to Morse or Morse to text.

3. Click the Translate Button

Press the translate icon to instantly convert your input into the correct output format.

4. Review the Output Result

The translated message appears in the output box. Unsupported characters are shown as #.

5. Adjust Sound Settings

Customize playback using speed, pitch, and volume sliders for clear Morse audio.

6. Enable Output Modes

Toggle Sound, Light, or Vibrate to experience Morse code through different signals.

7. Play or Repeat the Code

Use Play, Pause, Stop, or Repeat to practice or listen again as needed.

8. Save or Share Your Audio

Download the Morse audio file or share the translated message instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about Morse code and our generator

Why does a Morse code translator show # instead of letters?

A # appears when the translator encounters characters that are not part of the International Morse Code standard, such as emojis, special symbols, or unsupported characters.

Use single spaces between letters and a forward slash (/) between words. Incorrect spacing is the most common cause of translation errors.

No. For accurate results, input must be either plain text or Morse code, not a mixture of both.

Standard punctuation including periods, commas, question marks, and slashes is supported. Unsupported punctuation is replaced with #.

Translation accuracy remains high for long messages as long as correct spacing and standard Morse symbols are used.

There is no strict limit, but extremely long inputs may affect performance depending on your device and browser.
