Yes.. Still looking, and finding.
About a week ago, a friend of mine, jedichefdave, was getting bored of Bob bashing (not a euphemism) and found himself wandering down Data Hive just looking., when he came across Morse code emanating from one of the computer consoles, a quick bit of research on Google showed it had be found before buy a few people but nothing had been done about it.
He got me interested and we went back to have a listen, sure enough underneath the beeps and ticks of the computer there was Morse. Half an hour later I had a 27min video of the Rookie stood still, staring at the floor of Data Hive.
But, the Morse was intriguing, short bursts with 15-20sec in between, and they where of different lengths so they weren't the same.
I ripped the sound track from the video, cut it into sections and emailed them to my Dad, who, back in the day - was a ham radio operator and knew Morse code- Yippee.
Two days later I received this little gem,

This is as it came, each line is a single burst of Morse, obviously randomly chosen, and for all you young-uns out there who think txt slang is new, please note, this is ITU short hand and has been around since the telegraph.
Sorry if this is all out there somewhere, and please tell us if it is, but we couldn't find anything posted about it anywhere.
PS anybody else think J banners look like punch cards.

Good job sep7ember! +KFY!
sep7ember:
cheers nightcrafter
I've followed SGP since the beginning, I just don't post often.
Apologies too, I should have included that jedi and I already know this needs no further research..... its all Bungie lore, pretty much. We just thought it needed "putting out there" and I new just the place!! ;)
Insane Monx:
Nice, sep7ember.
That's pretty interesting :laugh:
If you still play ODST and want to explore or need help just send me an invite or something.
