💭 Think About

• If you need to spell a ship’s name or a waypoint and the other station can’t understand you, what special method is commonly used worldwide? • Which of these choices is a procedure for speaking rather than a hardware switch on the radio? • Think about aviation, military, and marine communications: what common system do they all use to avoid confusion between similar-sounding letters?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to a spoken system of words for letters rather than a switch or button on the radio. • Eliminate any choices that sound like power level controls instead of communication clarity tools. • Recall that international radio practice uses a standard set of words for A, B, C, etc. to make sure messages are understood.
