6 in Morse Code
6 in International Morse code is −····: 4 short and 1 long. Every number in Morse code is five signals long. In cut numbers, the short form operators use when numbers are expected, runs of dashes are cut to one.
What −···· means in every alphabet
The same signal stands for different letters in different national codes. This is everything it means in the alphabets this site supports.
| International Morse (ITU) | 6 |
| American Morse (railroad) | 8 |
Easy to confuse with: 1 (·−−−−, dots and dashes swapped), 4 (····−, the same signals in reverse).
6 in cut numbers
6 has no shorter form: its cut number is the same as the full code, −····.
6 in American Morse code
In American (railroad) Morse code, 6 is sent as ······, not −···· as in International Morse.
