I have been fascinated by morse code since I first came into contact with the airwaves. After I bought my first morse key I needed something to produce the beep when pressing down the key. That is when I built my own morse beeper with the help of some family members who are more proficiant in electronics. The build The beeper is quite simple (it was my first real soldering project so it wasn't supposed to be too complicated).

CW vs. Morse CW and Morse (or Morse Code) are often used interchangeably within the HAM community. They are related, certainly, but they are not synonyms. It bothers me when they are used as though they were. What is CW? CW stands for Continuous Wave. It is a method of transmitting radio signals by switching the carrier on and off in certain patterns. It uses a constant frequency and a constant amplitude.
