MorsePadAbout "Sam" in Morse code
The name Sam has 3 letters, which become 7 Morse symbols: 4 dits (short signals) and 3 dahs (long signals). Sent at a standard 20 words per minute it takes about 1.5 seconds; at a beginner pace of 10 WPM, roughly twice that. The longest letter is S (...), and each letter is separated by a short pause.
It makes a personal gift: a bracelet spelling Sam needs 7 beads — 4 small round ones for dits and 3 long ones for dahs — plus 2 spacer beads between letters. The same pattern works as a minimalist tattoo, an engraving on a ring or watch, a knitted or cross-stitched design, or a hidden message on a card.
