New symbol added to Morse code
CQ CQ DE KI7KJ - Yes I have a ham license, but it's been a long time since I've used Morse code or amateur radio for anything. A new symbol has been added to Morse code for the first time in decades - the @ used in email addresses. The new code is given the name "commat" and is made by running an A and C together thusly: didahdahdidahdi.
