🔍 Key Concepts

• International Code of Signals (ICS) procedures for starting, answering, and ending a flag-hoist message • Difference between a single code flag (like N or R) and a two-flag signal group (like letters combined) • The purpose of the answering pennant in flag-hoist communications

💭 Think About

• Which signal is normally used to show that a ship has received and understood the message, and that the exchange is complete? • Among the options, which one is specifically associated with message completion/acknowledgment, rather than just being an ordinary letter or a “message received” signal? • How does the meaning of a pennant differ from the meaning of an ordinary alphabetical flag in the Code? Which is more likely to mark the end of a communication cycle?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which signal in the ICS is defined as meaning “end of transmission” or “message completed/acknowledged”. • Distinguish between flags that are letters only and those that are special procedural signals or combinations (like two-letter groups). • Confirm the specific role of the answering pennant—does it indicate ‘I see your hoist,’ ‘repeat,’ or ‘communication complete’ in ICS procedures?
