Police agencies had the "10 codes" before CBers did. :-)
The FAA calls it the ICAO phonetic alphabet.
FAA is (through the USA) part of the ICAO. :-)
Where did the ICAO get their phonetic alphabet? :-)
NATO had it first in 1955. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
It's refered to as the ICAO phonetic alphabet in about a dozen different
military aeronatutical publications that I recall including the FLIP charts.
You've "FLIPed" out, nursie.
Ain't no "aeronatutical publications." Lots of aeronautical ones... :-)
I've seen it refered to as the ICAO phonetic is several European radio
hobby magazines.
You've also said "MARS is amateur radio" despite DoD Directive
4650.2 (effective 21 Nov 03). :-)
You NOW refer to amateur radio as a "hobby?" Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Where is that enormous pride and esprit de corps in that very
special "service" you honor by keeping it like a quasi-paramilitary
something or other?
Remember, "ham radio" doesn't work like all other radios. It is
very different in your reality, extra special and never, never, ever
"just a hobby" in that fantasyland.
Ya figger all them folks know something YOU don't, Lennie...?!?!
NATO knows. The made the NATO phonetic alphabet a reality
in 1955. Hasn't changed any since that year.
Kellie will now start mumbling "putz" and other Yiddish
endearments... :-)
If it fits, Lennie...
Ya PUTZ!
Tsk, tsk, tsk. More of that "meaningful discussion?" :-)
