Say it with Semaphores

Before the development of telephones and two-way radios, the semaphore code was used to communicate over long distances. Sailors relied upon the semaphore code (and the Morse code) to pass information between ships at sea. Semaphore requires two flags. Send messages by snapping the flags into the positions that indicate the letters of the alphabet.

The Morse Code Translator

This code of dots and dashes was invented by Samuel Morse in 1835 for use with telegraphs. Use it to send messages with a light (a flashlight or mirror reflecting the sun), with sound (whistle or buzzer), a ham radio or a single flag. Swing the flag to the right for dot, the the left for a dash.
