| TELEGRAPH INSTRUMENTS AND MORSE CODE | ||
| There is growing interest in collecting old telegraph instruments
and morse keys, as well as in the code books and telegrams of years gone
by. Morse code, too, has a fascination particularly among people who have
come to use and love the key - ships' operators, railway telegraphists
and radio amateurs - and whatever others may believe, these people
are making sure that morse code has a long life ahead.
