[SFDXA] Early Morse Stories in the South West

[Kai Siwiak]

Bill,
Thanks, that was a very nice story!

For Morse aficionados: as recently as 2006 (the copyright date of the 
article) the ITU-R revised M.1677 to
make a correction. But, RECOMMENDATION  ITU-R  M.1677, International 
Morse code, had been revised
in 2004 to include the "@" symbol, known as the "commercial at" or  
"arobase" for use in e-mail addresses.
The Morse "@" is "dit dah dah dit dah dit", like "a" and "c" run 
together, just like it appears in print. 
Think it will catch on?
