When signaling by flashing light, how should you acknowledge a correctly received repetition of a signal?

🔍 Key Concepts

• International Code of Signals (INTCO) procedures for visual (flashing light) signaling • The specific meaning of procedural groups like AR, T, and single letters in visual signaling • Difference between "end of signal" and "correctly received" acknowledgments

💭 Think About

• Think about which of these groups is used as a procedural signal rather than a letter with its normal alphabetic meaning. • Ask yourself: when a signal is repeated back correctly, what short group is normally used internationally to mean "I have received and understand"? • Consider which of these groups you have seen in examples of flashing light or flag signaling exercises acknowledging correct reception.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which group in the Code is defined as "end of transmission" and which is "received/understood"—they are not the same. • Check that the option you choose is actually listed as a procedure signal in the International Code of Signals, not just an ordinary alphabet letter. • Confirm whether the group is specifically prescribed for acknowledging correct receipt of a repeated signal in visual (flashing light) communications.
