FOXTROT in Morse Code
FOXTROT is the seven-letter radiotelephony code word for F. It includes T twice, separated by R and O. Encoding F alone is a different, much shorter message.

What to check in FOXTROT
X is dash-dot-dot-dash, whereas F is dot-dot-dash-dot. Check the order as well as the mark count. Both T groups are single dashes in distinct letter positions.

Encode the exact wording below and compare it with FOXTROT. Adding letters or words changes the signal; a word gap is longer than a letter gap. The slash in the displayed result marks that word gap and is not an extra transmitted mark.
..-.Verify your finished pattern
Read each labelled character group in order, then decode the complete copied pattern. Check that it returns FOXTROT, including any word spaces. In a physical layout, decorative spacers should be distinct from signal marks. The diagram illustrates grouping; it does not specify bead sizes or guarantee how a printed or permanent design will reproduce.
Keep each letter’s marks together, put a space between letters, and use / between words. Check the writing guide for accepted input and the timing reference for playback.
