I've found an easter egg!

Off Jayapura on the 2 degree South line there is a string of morse code. Somebody need to figure out what it says!

What mod(s)? ... and do you mean to tell me, you're skippering a submarine, and ~you~ don't know Morse code?... There will be no investigation. This will go directly to trial. You better line yourself up a good JAG mister! That is all!

I couldn't even pass the Boy Sprouts requirements for a Morse Code Merit Badge 45+ years ago...

- we need an interpreter!

btw, "Welcome to SubSim!"

I knew Morse Code, got the badge, and did code on the old Ham radio. Could do Signal Flags too, but I'm a little (lot : ) rusty on all of the above because hardly anyone uses it any more.

Try this:

well if you are such an expert it should be no problem to go figure it out haha. The dashes and dots are different lengths making it tricky to decipher. Probably something like, "Why did you bother to decode this?". It's standard Sh4 during the american campaign 1943. It extends across 2 degrees of latitude, but it would be awesome if somebody could find out what it says!

If you could post what it looks like here, I might be able to decipher it. I used to use a program called "CWCom" to chat with people online in Morse. (I know, I'm super-geeky.)

As an example:

∙∙∙ ∙∙- -∙∙∙ ∙∙∙ ∙∙ --

is: S U B S I M

type it into the url, that's just the first part

I've already tried to use morse code decoders where you type it in but it doesn't seem to recognize anything after the first letter of C.

If anybody manages to get past that, i'll post the rest.

Umm...

We can't get to your computer.

(And if we can, you're doing something very very wrong.)

You need to upload the pictures somewhere and then link to them.
