How do I write Morse code here?

Use dots (.) and dashes (-). Put a space between letters and a slash (/) between words, for example ... --- ... for SOS.

What speed should I use?

About 5 to 10 words per minute suits beginners; experienced operators often send 20 or more. The speed follows the international PARIS standard.

Which characters does Morse have?

Letters A to Z, digits 0 to 9 and common punctuation. Accented letters are written without the accent, and characters Morse has no code for are listed and left out.
