Code Sprint
A word appears; send it in Morse, letter by letter, as fast as you can. Every right letter scores. Get one wrong and you see its code, then try it again. How many can you send before the clock runs out?

Send each word in Morse as fast as you can. Dot is . or Z, dash is - or X, and Space ends each letter. Miss a letter twice and its code is shown.
Controls
- Dot: the full stop key, or Z.
- Dash: the minus key, or X.
- Space or Enter: finish the letter. Backspace removes the last dot or dash.
- On a phone, use the Dot, Dash and Next letter buttons.
- The code turns red as soon as it can't be the letter. Miss a letter twice and its code is shown; the round ends with the letters to practise.
Getting faster
Say each letter's rhythm in your head as you type it, the way it sounds: “dah-di-dah-dit” for C. Leave the sidetone on, so your fingers and ears learn the code together. Your best score is kept for each round length.
