At one time the BBC used the Morse 'V' as an interval signal played on a

That must have been a LONG time ago. I've been listening to the BBC
World Service for more than 30-years and I never heard the 'V' signal.


It was certainly in use in the 80's for certain broadcasts, and may be in use
yet today according to another poster.


And not necessarily what we might consider to be 'World Service' broadcasts, but
rather broadcasts in languages other than English as I recall.
