Simple grammar question! PLEASE ANSWER WITHIN 20 MIN:

If I am writing "United States" as "U.S.", how do I add a comma after "U.S."?
This is my sentence:
At first, radio signals came from the U.S. < [COMMA] > but then it came from Canada.

Is it "U.S.," or "U.S;" or "U.S,"? PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY! :D

Answer:

The most correct way to write this would be U.S.,

Step-by-step explanation:

I have a few opitions which are all techincally grammaticlly correct.

First, the radio signals came from the United States; then they came from Canada. (More formal)

...came from the U.S. but then.... (also grammatrically correct)

...from the U.S., then from ....

hope this helps :)
