NO, that's not necessarily the case.

In a weak signal situation a space is often decoded as an "A".   Look on your 
screen when someone is sending 599 56 599 56  and you will see it variously 
as:

            TOOATYATOOATY 

So your call will show up as VKUAWESAW4UK 

A <CR> puts you on a NEW LINE, by yourself, away from all other garbage and, 
on some machines, resets the USOS so you get:

VKUAWES
W4UK

The carriage return <CR> is one of the RTTYer's most useful tools.  A space 
often shows up as an "A."
