How to Send HI

Flashlight

Dots are quick blinks. Send four quick blinks, pause, then two quick blinks.

Whistle

Short toots only—four, pause, two. Keep the pitch consistent.

Tapping

Tap-tap-tap-tap, pause, tap-tap. Use a hard surface.

Radio / Key

Key at a steady pace. Because it's so short, repeat it a few times.

Timing Rules

Dot = 1 unit
Gap within letter = 1 unit pause
Gap between letters = 3 units pause

The "HI" Rhythm: Send .... (four dots with 1 unit between each), then pause 3 units, then .. (two dots with 1 unit between them). Keep dots crisp and evenly spaced.

Common Mistakes

Dots running together

If .... and .. blur together, you are sending a 6-dot string (which means "error"). Lengthen the 3-unit gap.

Uneven tempo

Keep a metronome-like pace; don't speed up on the second letter.

Adding dashes

HI uses only dots. If you hear anything long, reset your rhythm.

2-Minute Practice Plan

1

Listen & Echo

Play the audio at the top of the page, then immediately repeat it.

2

Count It Out

Think "one" for each dot; pause "one-two-three" between letters.

3

Write, Then Send

Jot H | I on paper to remind yourself to keep the 3-unit gap clean.
