MoIP - Morse over IP
|
|
====================
|
|
In analogy to voice over ip (voip) we can also do morse code over ip (moip).
|
|
A number of different approaches for CW over IP exist. Here we describe the
|
|
well-establised CWCom protocol.
|
|
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/)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
An alternative implementation in C exists<ref>IRMC (Morse KOB): http://fernski.blogspot.de/2013/03/internet-relay-morsecode.html</ref> as well as a port to the ATMEL AVR Microcontroller<ref>MorseKOB for AT Mega: http://fernski.blogspot.de/2013/05/sending-morsecode-via-atmega.html</ref>.

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

## CWCom Servers

|
|
|
## CWCom Clients
|
|
Both chat programs have been written for CW exclusively and are compatible<ref>Relay server for CW communicator and morse KOB: http://morsecode.dc3.com:7890</ref><ref>Sources for the Relay Server: http://sourceforge.net/projects/morse-rss-news/</ref>.

An alternative implementation in C exists as well as a port to the ATMEL AVR Microcontroller.

# What is IRMC?
|
|
IRMC stands for Internet Relay Morse Code.
|
|
It implements the [CWCom protocol](/doc/cwcom.pdf?raw=true)
|
|
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.
