🔍 Key Concepts

• International Code of Signals (INTERCO) radiotelephone procedure words • Meaning of the response "Alpha Sierra" when using INTERCO • Differences between sending in plain language vs code groups

💭 Think About

• When you first call a ship in INTERCO, what are you usually asking permission to do? • Does "Alpha Sierra" sound more like an instruction about how to send the message, or about whether you may send it now? • Which option best fits a short, standard acknowledgement used to control radio traffic flow?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match "Alpha Sierra" to its standard ICS radiotelephone meaning (check INTERCO tables). • Decide if the response is about timing (now / later) or format (plain language / code). • Eliminate any answer that would require a different standard phrase than "Alpha Sierra" in ICS procedures.
