Apparently Kirk did know the Morse code, since he was able to copy the
"SOS" being sent by antique space ship from Earth full of the genetically

A Treker, not a "Trekkie"
OK. There you have it. End of debate. Larry has just stated that someone
who knows the sending of SOS knows "the Morse code."
Except that the sleeper ship was sending "CQ", not "SOS". Which may actually
have been a form of inside joke, because one of the pet peeves of many was the
too-long CQ with no breaks to listen.
