MoIP - Morse Code over IP

For a period of ca. seventy years telecommunication was only possible by way of transmission methods using the Morse code. The Morse alphabet, in the form still officially and globally widespread to this day, was invented a good 150 years ago by the German Clemens Gerke. This art of broadcasting messages by way of Morse telegraphy was and still is only possible if one has specialist knowledge and skills. It is a type of intercultural form of culture and communication that overcomes the barriers of time and space ( Morse Code as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage). The transmission of messages by way of the Morse code is nowadays no longer necessary for technological, economic and military reasons. Morse code is fun to learn and due to its simplicity wide range of experiments with communication technologies can done with little cost.

For morse code over IP we use the well-establised CWCom protocol (since 1998) invented by John Samin (VK1EME). Its efficient method to transmit only the elapsed times between state changes of the morse key with UDP saves our bandwidth. Shortly after the launch of the original CWCom software Les Kerr released the open source software MorseKOB.

TBD ## CWCom Servers The clients will connect to one of the servers using the CWCom protocol.  The source code for a server on a Raspi can be found [here](https://sites.google.com/site/morsekob/server). ## Compatibility The original CWCom protocol has been extended for MorseKOB, as landline telegraphy uses closed circuits (latching). There are mainly two server types for moip (see below): the original CWCom server and the MorseKOB server. Both servers are compatible using a relay server written by Bob Denny ([source code](https://github.com/8cH9azbsFifZ/moip-relay-server/tree/master)).

TBD https://github.com/8cH9azbsFifZ/moip/raw/master/doc/cwcom.pdf The [CWCom protocol](/doc/cwcom.pdf?raw=true) (cw communicator) is an effective method for transmitting morse code signals as UDP packets over IP.
