How does one say mayday on CW? My radio only works on the bottom 25 KHz of the HF bands. Hmmmmmm - my how we belabor a point. MAYDAY IN CW = SOS............ SOS is usually sent in those cases. SOS for the CW and Mayday for radiotelephone. MAYDAY is "also" asked about in some RadioTelephone license exams for "marine" use and is even becoming part of the Fire service. There is a test specifically for "Mayday" and its uses. Mayday is "generally" used in "airplane" emergencies. |
