Morse Code Mysteries and Missives - Donald J Bingle - Bog

Morse Code Mysteries and Missives includes three stories, each one of which is first presented in printed Morse Code, then audio links are given to listen to the Morse Code, then the stories are repeated in clear English text at the back of the book. The purpose of this book is not to teach you Morse Code; it is to let those who have basic coding skills and experience with Morse Code practice decoding on something more interesting than short phrases, kid's books, and dry practice manuals. It can also be great fun for fans of puzzles and cryptography. Note that the software by which many listen to the audio dots and dashes may allow the speed of transmission to be adjusted, generally in increments from half to twice the default wpm transmission rate. This makes it a great book for CW and ham radio enthusiasts, puzzle and cryptography fans, and current and former members of the military (including the Signal Corps and Radio Operators of the Coast Guard, Navy, Air Force, Army, and Marines) and crew from the merchant marine. The materials include two stories I wrote (Stress Fracture and Dashed Hopes), as well as a relevant piece of non-fiction of historical interest. If you enjoy the stories, please consider my various thriller novels, short story collections, and stand-alone tales, all of which can be accessed via my author's page or my website at www.donaldjbingle.com.
