Author unknown but "right on" ------------------------------------- Don't the police and other services use the APCO phonetics? There's only one correct international set of phonetics - Alpha Bravo Charlie Delta Echo Foxtrot Golf Hotel India Juliet Kilo Lima Mike Novenber Oscar Papa Quebec Romeo Sierra Tango Uniform Victor Whisky X- ray Yankee Zulu I have a P at the end of my US call, and that is the one letter that causes me problems. Papa is supposed to be pronounced the British way, not the American way, so as to be correct (don't blame me, all the phonetics have only one official pronounciation, and that happens to be it). As a Brit operating from America, I find that when I do so, people copy it as 'Japan', hence converting my call from N3KIP to N3KIJ in the mind of the DX. Now, I understand that anyone is free to use whatever phonetics they like, but 'Japan' is a bad one, as it sounds too much like the official way of saying 'Papa', at least through QRM, although not like the way Americans say it. Unfortunately it is common to use country names as phonetics. No doubt 'Papa' was a bad choice originally, as there is more than one way of saying it, but I can't do much about that. I have tried using 'Pacific' or 'Peter', both of which seem to be common. I have also tried saying 'Papa' the American way, although there is considerable irony in that, i.e. for me that is both putting on a foreign accent and departing from the official way of saying it, which happens to be the way that is natural for me to begin with! |
