I just heard that for the first time just now.. If that was sent by
someone
with a normal fist it would be VTTS.. Course, most TV commercials
seem to use ham fisted CW ops so who knows for sure..
If they are trying to send an M , it's a poor effort with bad timing.
If I heard it on the air, I would copy VTTS.
BTW, I've worked CW for nearly 40 years at 55-60 wpm speeds in my
prime.. I've been slacking the last years so I'm not that fast now.
But I can still copy code...
That's VTTS as it's sent. If a TV CW op messes up code, it's almost
always the timing, which is fairly critical if you want the one
copying
to get the correct message. :/

Can't be - there are only two dahs.

Yep, but they are using too large a gaps between the
dah's.. To any normal person, that would read TT..
It's the timing that is screwed up..
If they intend an M, the two dashes should be much
closer together to match the timing of the V and S.
