Morse code is highly efficient for low-power transmitting due to its narrow bandwidth, simple on/off signal, and ability to be decoded with low signal-to-noise ratios. This means it requires less power to be heard over long distances than voice, and can be transmitted with minimal equipment, outperforming more complex voice modes in difficult conditions. .....
