ARLA/CLUSTER: Fwd: [New post] CW message hidden in song reached FARC prisoners

[Luís Garcia Filipe]

São este tipo de eventos que ainda traz mais brilho aquilo que é o CW.

Encaminho para vós uma mensagem de CW que foi oculta numa musica para dar
esperança a uns prisioneiros militares nas mãos das FARC.


Só mesmo um bom ouvido treinado em CW é que consegue perceber a mensagem
oculta ( not my case)

In 2010 the Columbian army used Morse code hidden in a song to reach
soldiers who were kidnapped by FARC guerrillas. It took a while to compose
the song in such a way that only people proficient in CW would be able to
pick it up from the background music, but eventually they succeeded to
compose and send the following message:

A team began experimenting with Morse code using various percussion
instruments and a keyboard. They learned that operators skilled in Morse
code can often read the signals at a rate of 40 words per minute — but
played that fast, the beat would sound like a European Dance track. "We
discovered the magic number was 20," says Portela. "You can fit
approximately 20 Morse code words into a piece of music the length of a
chorus, and it sounds okay." The song was called "Better Days".
*"Better Days" *

[VERSE 1]



*In the middle of the night Thinking about what I love the most I feel the
need to sing What my heart has to give*

I talk about those I love
About how much I miss them
I talk about pride and strength
Which beat inside my heart

[CHORUS]


*A new dawn singing this message From my heart Although I'm tied up and
alone I feel as if I'm by your side Listen to this message brother*

[MORSE MESSAGE]
*19 people rescued. You’re next. Don’t lose hope*

[VERSE 2]



*I want to keep on fighting For my friends, my family, my children We will
soon see each other again I'm sure better days are coming*

[CHORUS x 2]
