No... take it to the next level! Get one of those little kits that attach to the serial bus.... then you can program that to recieve and send. then have a program on the main computer to parse the input into words... and parse your output into pulses (not to fast you wanna have the other person understand it)
Back by popular demand!

There are programs like that. See, Morse Code is really just a digital mode. There are only three states: dit, dah and nothing heard (space). So a computer just treats it like a digital mode when the tranceiver is plugged into the computer. Problem is, after a certain speed, even the computer can't distinguish the seperate dits and dahs. So it doesn't work. Other digital modes (RTTY, and others) cure this.
TBBQ: That'd be cool. Then if you get HF privelages and I do as well, we can actually talk to each other on the air. Keep me posted.
