On FM, I use\nKilo, but go to Kilowatt in SSB (on satellites and HF). For some\nSpanish-speakers, I will go with a phonetic alphabet that is used\nmany who speak that language to complete QSOs, along with\nspeaking in Spanish (completely legal, provided my station ID is\nin English at the end of the QSO).\n\nIt is nice that this discussion has centered on the choice of words\nfor the phonetic alphabet, instead of following past discussions here\non the -BB where some advocated not using any phonetics. The\nmessage in K8YSE's e-mail is a good one, reinforced when I get\nthe occasional e-mail from a Spanish-speaking satellite ham along\nwith a WAV or MP3 file asking me to decipher the callsign (and\nsometimes grid) in the recording. I know I'm not the only one that\ngets these sorts of requests from those hams. Lately, it all centers\non the stateside hams not using phonetics, and the Spanish-\nspeaking hams not knowing the English \"A, B, C, ... \" alphabet.\n\nIf you hear those hams on the passes, go ahead and try to work them.\nThey are looking to put more stations, states/provinces, grids, etc. in\ntheir logs as anyone else. Please keep in mind that English isn't their\nfirst language, and help them with the standard phonetics so they can\nlog you correctly.\n\n73!\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n", "attachments": [] }
