What you learn
Chapter 1 introduces the five most common letters in French and English. E (·) and T (−) are the foundation — one dot and one dash, the bare minimum. At this stage you mostly learn rhythm listening (di-daa), the PARIS timing standard (12 wpm), and CW phonetic reading.
Mission Morse lessons
Each chapter has two lessons: "listening" (8 audio questions) and "rhythm tap" (6 tapping questions). Lessons chain in Mission Morse once you sign up.
