Click here for an example of International Morse Code -- one of many types of radio transmissions monitored and recorded by the Communication Technicians, in the Research Department, on USS Liberty.
In this example, the coded message is being sent at a relatively slow-speed. Typically, Morse code operators manually sent code much faster, or used a machine to send coded messages at speeds greater than many human operators could achieve over a long period of time. Additionally, the Morse code messages were often random groups of numbers or letters that were actually messages encrypted to appear like random number or letter groups.
Can you read the message? Below is a graphical representation of the dots and dashes (dits and dahs) in the message:
.._ ... ... ._.. .. _... . ._. _ _._ _
