MoIP - Morse over IP

In analogy to voice over ip (voip) we can also do morse code over ip (moip). 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), a JavaScript implementation, a bandwidth-eating UDP implementation, a chat for iOS or a modulated CW over IP using Mumble (iCW).

CWCom Protocol

A number of different approaches for CW over IP exist. An early implementation has been the CWCom protocolCWCom, John Samin (VK1EME): http://www.mrx.com.au/d_cwcom.htm, which has been the basis for Morse KOBMorse KOB, Less Kerr: http://kob.sdf.org/morsekob/ Morse KOB 4.0, Less Kerr: https://sites.google.com/site/morsekob/, a ready-to-use software.

What is IRMC?

IRMC stands for Internet Relay Morse Code. It implements the CWCom protocol as adopted by MorseKOB. You can try out the software in a browser using Java.
