<h2>Info</h2>

<ul>
<h3>Dits and Dahs</h3>
<li><b>Dit</b> - Denoted as a dot (.), the base unit of morse code.</li>
<li><b>Dah</b> - Denoted as a dash (-), the length of 3 dits</li>
<h3>Spacing</h3>
<li><b>Intra-character Spacing</b> - Silence the length of 1 dit</li>
<li><b>Inter-character Spacing</b> - Silence the length of 3 dits</li>
<li><b>Inter-word Spacing</b> - Silence the length of 7 dits</li>
</ul>
<h3>Telegraph Key Types</h3>
<p>The instrument used to send morse code is called the key. <b>Straight Keys</b> use a single button and generates tones whe pressed down. Straight keys require greater accuracy as you control the dits, dahs, and spacing. <b>Electronic Keys</b> can have two paddles that automatically generate either dits or dahs of appropriate length when pressed.</p>
