I History, the morse code was first transmitted from one point to another in 1844. It was developed by just looking at the printing press collection of letters and by counting each letter, a pattern was found where the letters E, T, I, A, N, R, M are the most numerous and so they are given shorter morse codes. that does not take as long to transmit words. This was the basis of long distance communication and Telegraph was born. Signals travelled along the poles beside rail road tracks since the rail road was cross-country and was a direct route between Telegraph repeater sites (evey 40 miles the signal needs to be repeated) and it was easy to evesdrop as relays were used at the sites. For more information, check your encyclopedia or CD-ROM version. Morse Code Morse code is composed of dots and dashes, it’s used by commercial and amateur stations in everywhere on earth. It was developed by just looking at the printing press collection of letters and by counting each letter, a pattern was found where the letters E, T, I, A, N, R, M are the most numerous and so they are given shorter morse codes, that does not take as long to transmit words. This was the basis of long distance communication and Telegraph was born. Signals travelled along the poles beside rail road tracks since the rail road was cross-country and was a direct route between Telegraph repeater sites (every 40 miles the signal needs to be repeated) and it was easy to drop as relays were used at the sites. The inventer of Morse code is Samuel F. B. Morse. Samuel was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts on April 27, 1791. He entered Yale University when he was 14 years old, and went to England to study art when he finished university. He went back to United States in 1815 and married Lucretia Pickering Walker in 1818. In 1825, his wife died, while he was away from the city. He learned his wife died after three days because the lack of transportation. So he thought of a way to send message over great distances with the use of an electromagnet, wires and batteries. He quitted his career of being an artist and starting to work on his invention. He applied for a patent on his invention in 1837. He sent the first message from Capital in Washington on May 24, 1844. The message is,”What hath God wrought!” and it’s received in Baltimore almost as soon as it was sent!! The Alphabet and the Numbers are: A .- B -… C -.-. D -.. E . F ..-. G –. H …. I ..
