+ RADIOGRAM PRACTICE
SESSIONS CONTINUE -
RADIOGRAM TIP #5: On phone, it is unnecessary and is considered bad form to say
“check” before saying the check figures, or to say “To” before saying
the address.
RADIOGRAM TIP # 6: On phone, when saying the text, it is recommended to say
“figures”... then say the figure(s). E.g. - “Figure 4” would be
written: 4
(one word). “Figure group 458” would be written: 458 (one word).
Except
on ARL numbered messages, the Arabic figures are shorter, quicker, and in
some cases will avoid confusing them with homonyms. (E.g. - “two”, “to”
and “too”.) Note: In CW, this is a non-problem.)
