How it sounds
Hear four long marks
9 almost feels like 0, but it ends with one short dit instead of a fifth dah.
0 is five dahs. 9 changes the final mark to a dit.
How to type it
Four dashes, one dot
Type four hyphens followed by one period as one complete digit.
Check the last mark
The final dot is the difference between 9 and 0.
Common number mistakes
Every Morse digit uses five marks, so missing one dot or dash can change the answer.
If the final mark is a dah, the pattern becomes 0.
8 starts with three dahs, so count the long marks before the final short marks.
