Hi Stefan,
all your good suggestions noted!

Hmm, that's about 2 km of wire, my place is not big enough, but the
people around me seem to be quite friendly, so I guess it's possible.
What sort of wire would you use for this?

Fully agree!

I have butchered the pi wspr code and I can now arbitrarily produce
any frequency I like using the GPIO4 pin. That's the hard bit. Now I
need to produce the character to morse code translation code and add
the features you requested. Stay tuned!
