Steve,

OK. I've never worked with a WX machine, but now that you mention it,  I 
do vaguely remember that "Blank" was used.  And I should have remembered 
that the punch block controlled spacing. That should have been a clue!!

Thanks,

So there was a punch bar on a weather machine, but not on a standard communications version machine.  The function of the punch block was to control whether a particular character would cause the carriage to 'space' or not.  Therefore a "blank" would not cause a 'space' except on a weather machine and even then only in FIGS when it had printed a minus/dash sign.
