The Great Foo Key

Two-Way Radio Procedures encompasses international regulations, official procedures, technical standards, and commonly understood conventions intended to ensure efficient, reliable, and inter-operable communications via all modes of radio communications.

Drills and Exercises are different. Drills are for routine training practice; exercises are formal simulations of actual events.

Emergency communication system

https://simplex-fire.com/en/us/DocumentsandMedia/579-769.PDF

https://www.montcopa.org/DocumentCenter/View/8475

According to TM 11-678, the human voice produces about 1,000 microwatts when talking as loudly as possible, and an average power when talking (not whispering) as quietly as possible of 1/1,000 microwatt. In ordinary speech, vowels contribute the greatest power, reaching a maximum of about 2,000 microwatts. Double-check values for consistency. Threshold of audibility varies by frequency. As does threshold of feeling Use figure 9 or a better one.

Telephone systems distort sound, generate noise mechanically and electrically, pick up noise from external sources, cutt off low and high frequency components, sometimes attenuate the sound on long distance circuits. All of these reduce the intelligibility of the words, the naturalness of the tone, and quality of the sound. 200 to 2700 cycles Also add in digital conversion distortion.

Quality/timbre is the characteristics that makes it recognizable as a certain kind of sound.

Calling Procedures
The voice calling procedure is derived from the radiotelegraph calling procedure, which in the U.S. is the structure defined in FCC regulations Part 80.97 (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 47, Section 80.97):

(c) The call consists of: (1) The call sign of the station called, not more than twice; the word ‘‘DE’’ and the call sign of the calling station, not more than twice; if useful, the frequency on which the called station should reply; and the letter ‘‘K’’. (2) If the call is transmitted twice at an interval of not less than one minute, it must not be repeated until after an interval of three minutes. (d) The reply to calls consists of: The call sign of the calling station, not more than twice; the word ‘‘DE’’; and the call sign of the station called, once only.

The origin of the format for making a call is referenced in the March, 1940 issue of The APCO Bulletin:

"In the beginning of radio communication it was found that a certain method of calling brought better results and the rule was formulated that in calling a station the letters KA (sent as one letter) followed by the call letters of the station being called sent three times separated by the letters DE from the call letters of the station calling sent three times, should constitue a call. Under the conditions and in the class of service where this method is used it has been proved to be the best. However, this method is usd in mobile service covering thousands of miles, in un-mapped territory as far as transmission characteristics are concerned and the same station is seldom worked twice as an average rule in the course of a day."

=== Calling Procedure ===
 * 1) MUST give the callsign of the station you are calling, either once or twice (never three times)
 * 2) MUST follow the callsign with the proword THIS IS
 * 3) MUST give your callsign once, and once only
 * 4) Give your message
 * 5) SHOULD end your transmission with the proword OVER, or OUT

== Basic Radio Etiquette ==
 * The international radio language is English
 * you cannot speak and listen at the same time
 * Don't interrupt other stations
 * Do not respond if you aren't sure the call is for you
 * Never transmit sensitive, confidential, financial or military information
 * Perform radio checks to ensure your radio is in good working condition
 * Battery level
 * Volume loud enough
 * In range of key stations
 * Memorize call signs and locations of persons and radio stations you communicate with regularly
 * Think before you speak.
 * Keep the audience's attention

Rules for Spelling
ITU Phonetic Spelling Alphabet

Help:IPA/English

Digits
Add punctuation pronounciation

== Rules for Radio Discipline    == 4 golden rules Other rules
 * Clarity
 * Simplicity
 * Brevity
 * Security
 * Only transmit facts
 * Never transmit rumours
 * Do not act as a relay station unless the net control asks for one.
 * Always transmit a sequence of numbers as individual digits, using phonetics
 * Always know what to say and how to say it

Mnemonics
~Handy Mnemonics~ mne-mon-ic \ ni-’mahn-ik\ adj 1: assisting or intended to assist memory. 2: of or relating to memory An Alphabet Soup - the “Nuts & Bolts” KHT = Key, Hesitate, Talk Using this technique will avoid “front end clipping” of your transmission. What is usually clipped or lost at the beginning of radio transmissions is WHO is being called or the radio identifier of the person CALLING, or sometimes the REASON for the transmission. Simply depress the microphone key, hesitate to the count of “one thousand one” and then talk. SHR = Stop, Hesitate, Release Well, there’s “rear end clipping” too, ya know. This technique will prevent that annoying loss of often vital information at the end of your transmissions. ABC - Accuracy, Brevity, Clarity

Accuracy
RSVP:

R: Rhythm: Use short sentences divided into sensible phrases (vs. pauses after each and every word) that maintain a natural rhythm. When pausing, release the pressel to minimize transmission time and to permit stations to break in as necessary.

S: Speed: Speak slightly slower than for normal conversation. Slow down by increasing the length of pauses between phrases, especially if a message is to be written down by the recipients or if conditions are difficult. (Altering the gaps between words will create an unnatural, halted rhythm that is difficult to understand.) Never speak faster than the station experiencing the worst reception conditions can be expected to receive.

V: Volume: Speak at a volume as for normal conversation. Shouting causes distortion.

P: Pitch: To improve clarity, pitch the voice slightly higher than for normal conversation

Radio Check
Use Plain language radio checks.

Procedure Words
Emphasize heavily. ACP-125 Procedure Words

Define a subset of the standard words.

Brevity Codes
Should not use any brevity codes, including ACP-131, Q code, RST code, and Ten-Code.

Exceptions:
 * 73 (well understood by Hams to mean "Best Regards"; from the 92 Code.
 * ACP-131
 * Brevity: Radio frequency is becoming saturated, degraded, or jammed and briefer transmissions must follow. Is there a proword for this? same as USE ABBREVIATED PROCEDURE? Which document has MINIMIZE? ACP-121
 * Unable: Cannot comply as requested/directed. (Also an aviation proword)
 * Amateur Radio operators should be familiar with these Q Codes. Their use is to be discouraged, but is so common they should be understood, especially QSL, which maps directly to the proword ACKNOWLEDGE. However, many of them have a slightly different meaning in voice communications than how they are used in Morse code. In telegraphy, they are used as a question/answer pair, as in QRO? is the question "Shall I increase power?" and QRO is the command "Increase power." In voice, however, Amateur radio operators will say they are operating QRO, which colloquially means "I'm operating with significantly more than 5 Watts.", in contrast with QRP, which colloquially means "I'm operating with 5 Watts or less."
 * QRO?: Shall I increase power?
 * QRP?: Shall I decrease power?
 * QSL?: Can you acknowledge receipt?
 * QST?: What follows is a broadcast message to all Amateur radio operators.
 * QTH?: What is your position in lat/lon?
 * QRM?: Is your transmission being interfered with? The answer is QRM followed by a single digit, 1–5, where 1 means no interference and 5 means extremely. (Remember that "M" here means man-made interference.)
 * QRN?: Is your reception troubled by static? The answer is QRN followed by a single digit 1–5, where 1 means no interference and 5 means extremely.
 * QRT?: Shall I stop sending? Colloquially, this means the Amateur operator is ceasing his transmissions and turning off the radio, so will be unreachable until some point in the future.
 * QSO?: Can you communicate with ... direct (or by relay)? Colloquially, a QSO is a conversation.
 * QSY?: Shall I change to transmission on another frequency?
