irmc - Internet Relay Morse Code
================================
# What is IRMC?
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.
IRMC stands for Internet Relay Morse Code and is an implementation of [MOIP](https://github.com/8cH9azbsFifZ/moip).
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.
Besides a variety of other approaches exist, for example an IRC plugin ([CWirc](http://myspace.voo.be/pcoupard/cwirc/)), a [JavaScript implementation](http://morsecode.me), a [bandwidth-eating UDP implementation](http://hans.liss.pp.se/node/343), a [chat for iOS](http://pignology.net/cwwithme.html) or a modulated CW over IP using Mumble ([iCW](https://sites.google.com/site/icwoip/)).

(i.e. [PL2303_Serial-USB_on_OSX_Lion.pkg](http://changux.co/osx-installer-to-pl2303-serial-usb-on-osx-lio/)).
## Testing with MorseKOB 3.0 (Java)
This [software](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/morsekob30/MorseKOB.jar) will run on
Linux, Windows and OSX. With the [RXTX software](http://morsekob.org/morsekob30/help.htm)
for Java (i.e. librxtxSerial.jnilib on OSX) it is even possible to connect to external hardware.
NB: before you transmit make sure you uncheck the "circuit closer".
## Testing
./irmc morsecode.dyndns.org 7890 2348 test
Or you may want to use tcpdump, i.e.:
```
sudo tcpdump -i all -vvvv "host faeroes.sdf.org"
```

## Morse KOB Servers
* faeroes.sdf.org 7890
* mtc-kob.dyndns.org 7890
A current list of servers if provided on the [MorseKOB Website](http://mtc-kob.dyndns.org).
## Hardware interface options
A good description on how to build differnt interfaces (telegraph key, sounder or both) is given on the [MorseKOB Website](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/interface.htm). Landline telegraphs use "closed circuits" for communications; if you have built one at home, you may also use the [loop interface](http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/docs/loopinterface.pdf).

> I have been using cwcom to practice sending morsecode, unfortunately my main computer at home is running openbsd and it has gotten harder to gain access to a reliable MS Windows machine. So I wrote my own client that works on openbsd.
> This is written in C and although not tested it should compile under other OS. If any one wants to try it and send me feedback. you can download version 0.01 here http://fernan.bitbucket.org/irmc.tgz
> Les Kerr of https://home.comcast.net/~morsekob/ has been very patient in answering my questions regarding the cwcom protocol and setting up a test server during debugging.
>
> There are few difference between this and the official cwcom client
> 1. It is a command line tool
> 2. It does not send the characters of the message to the receivers screen.
> 3. It does not translate CW for you. You can try fldigi if you just want see the transmission.
> 4. Tone pitch is currently hard coded to 650Hz
> 5. It does not have a way to show you who is listening.

> Bugs:
> There are a few that I am working on right now, but feel free to send me feedback if you get a chance to try it out.
