BTW, thanks again for all your \nhelp during the Symposium.\n\nDave, AA4KN\n\n----- Original Message ----- \nFrom: \"Samudra Haque N3RDX\" <[email protected]>\nTo: \"Tony Langdon\" <[email protected]>\nCc: <[email protected]>; \"Gary Lockhart\" <[email protected]>; \"Eric \nKnaps,ON4HF\" <[email protected]>\nSent: Tuesday, October 13, 2009 5:10 PM\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: FM satellite operations again again over Europe\n\n\nI asked as I am still puzzled why in the US on local FM nets hams just\nuse \"n,3,r,d,x\" instead of \"november three romeo david x-ray\".\n\n\n\nOn Tue, Oct 13, 2009 at 4:59 PM, Tony Langdon <[email protected]> wrote:\n> At 07:30 AM 10/14/2009, Samudra Haque wrote:\n>>\n>> on a satellite QSO, is it traditional to say \"A, B, C\" instead of\n>> \"Alfa Bravo Charlie\" for brevity when referring to call signs and grid\n>> locators ?\n>\n> That can backfire and waste time, due to people not understanding the\n> letters.
