    WHO SENT THE FIRST RADIO MESSAGE?
    A well-known portrait painter,
    named Samuel Morse, became
    interested in the power of
    electricity and realised that
    there must be some way of
    using it for communications
    ever long distances. He de-
    vised the series of dots and
    dashes which were called the
    Morse Code and made it
    possible for massages to be
    sent over vast distances where
    the human voice cannot be
    heard.
    Morse code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as standardized
    sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes, or dits and dahs. Morse code
    is named after Samuel Morse, one of the inventors of the telegraph.
