IRMC stands for Internet Relay Morse Code. It implements the [CWCom protocol](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/docs/cwcom.pdf) as adopted by [MorseKOB](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/docs/history.pdf). You can try out the software in a [browser](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/morsekob30/index.htm) using Java. + ## Why morse code over IP? Why not? A number of different approaches for CW over IP exist. An early implementation has been the CWCom protocol, which has been the basis for Morse KOB, a ready-to-use software. Both chat programs have been written for CW exclusively and are compatible. An alternative implementation in C exists as well as a port to the ATMEL AVR Microcontroller. @@ -104,3 +105,7 @@ Copied on 20150103 from http://fernski.blogspot.de/2013/03/internet-relay-morsec * Relay server for CW communicator and morse KOB: http://morsecode.dc3.com:7890 * Sources for the Relay Server: http://sourceforge.net/projects/morse-rss-news/ * MorseKOB for AT Mega, Fernan Bolando (VE4FEB): http://fernski.blogspot.de/2013/05/sending-morsecode-via-atmega.html + + + +A number of different approaches for CW over IP exist.
