entries you can store is reduced by one each
time you store a Contact Code Mode data
item.

Morse code is a system of representing letters of the alphabet and numbers

) and “dashes” ( ). This
watch shows Morse code in the text area of the display using “ ” and “ ”
symbols, with the codes for each letter separated by spaces.
