Morse code abbreviations differ from prosigns for Morse code in that they observe normal interletter spacing; that is, they are not "run together" the way prosigns are. From 1845 until well into the second half of the 20th century, commercial telegraphic code books were used to shorten telegrams, e.g. "Pascoela = Natives have plundered everything from the wreck".〔(Commercial Telegraphic Code Books ) James A. (Jim) Reeds 〕 == An amateur radio conversation in Morse code == The skill to have sensible conversations with Morse is more than knowing just the alphabet. To make communication efficient, there are many internationally agreed patterns of communication. A sample CW conversation between station 1 (S1) and station 2 (S2) S1: CQ CQ CQ DE S1 K Calling anyone (CQ), this is (DE) S1, listening for any response (K) S2: S1 DE S2 KN Calling S1, this is S2, listening for a response only from designated station (KN) (Two-way connection established) S1: S2 DE S1 = GA DR OM UR RST 5NN HR = QTH TIMBUKTU = OP IS JOHN = HW? S2 DE S1 KN Good afternoon dear old man. You are RST 599 here (the N's substitute for 9's; signal is very readable (5) and very strong (9), with very good tone (9)) I'm located in Timbuktu. The operator's name is John. How do you copy? S2: S1 DE S2 = TNX FB RPRT DR OM JOHN UR 559 = QTH HIMALAYA = NAME IS YETI S1 DE S2 KN Thanks for the nice (fine-business) report dear old man John. I read you 559 (very readable (5), average strength (5), very good tone (9)). I am in the Himalayas. My name is Yeti. S1: S2 DE S1 = OK TNX QSO DR YETI = 73 ES HPE CUAGN S2 DE S1 KN Okay, thanks for this conversation (QSO), dear Yeti. Best regards and hope to see you again. S2: S1 DE S2 = R TU CUAGN 73 S1 DE S2 SK Understood. Thank you. Best regards. (signing off) With heavy use of the Q code and Morse Code Abbreviations, surprisingly meaningful conversations can be had. Note that very few English words have been used ("is" and "name"), only abbreviations. S1 and S2 might not speak the same native language. Of course, real rag-chewing (lengthy conversations) cannot be done without a common language. On the worldwide amateur bands this is often English. Contesters often use a very specialized and even shorter format for their contacts. Their purpose is to process as many contacts as possible in a limited time (e.g. 100-150 per hour). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morse code abbreviations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
