[Fists] AT-Tension

[Ralph Sutton]

I have exchanged email address numerous times and nobody has ever had a =
problem with "at". - It's what they expect in that context. =20

=20

I doubt whether the new prosign AC as dreamed up by the IARU will get =
used much - much the same as all the other obscure punctuations that are =
relics of the days of line telegraphy.  One barely hears anything other =
than  ES   BT   AAA  XE  MIM nowadays.=20

The reason "@" or at is sent as a prosign AC. At would be confused with =
the
letter W.=20
