Just heard a Morse message sent on the Today programme, in a piece about 
  the 100th anniversary of the SOS call. The person who sent it (from a 
memory keyer I suspect) was Carlos, G0AKI of GB4FUN fame. Unfortunately 
the message he had been given by the producer to send was a bit long, 
and the presenters interrupted part way through. Still, we have to be 
able to copy through QRM.

Listeners were invited to email when they had copied the message, first 
one was a Chris Fox, ex commercial op don't know if he is a ham, 
followed by Tony Roskilly who is G3ZRJ.

If you want to hear it, go to
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/progs/listenagain.shtml
- and select the Today programme. The item went out about 8.30am
