     I found an article on Wabun code at:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wabun_code>

    According to this the symbol ...-. is used to announce the 
return of regular Morse code after a session in Wabun. This is 
the symbol for "understood" but I don't find it in modern lists 
of Morse symbols.
    Its reverse, AS, or  .-... us the signal for "wait" and does 
not seem to appear in Wabun. The article above says that the 
signal DO or -..--- is used to announce switching to Wabun.
     If we are to carry this further I suggest changing the 
Subject field.
