| + | ===Over, Out, Break, etc.=== | ||
| + | ===Over=== | ||
| + | 'Over' is used to indicate that any one message is finished and others can use the net. | ||
| + | ===Out=== | ||
| + | 'Out' is used to indicate that the entire conversation is over. People on the other end aren't expected to respond to this, so don't end ever transmission with 'out'! | ||
| + | ===Break=== | ||
| + | 'Break' is used before the transmitter stops speaking momentarily. Maybe they need to take a breath and gather their thoughts, maybe they expect the other end to take out pen and paper, but the transmitter typically gives 3-4 seconds before finishing the message. | ||
| + | ===Break, Break, Break=== | ||
| + | 'Break, break, break' is used to tell everyone to shut up, someone has something important to say. (This is also used on TeamSpeak to tell people to shut up quite often!) | ||
| + | ====Misc==== | ||
| + | ===Radio Check=== | ||
| + | Typically, at the beginning of a mission, people will check their radios by sending their callsign, typically a team name for your average grunt, plus 'Radio Check'. This is useful for making sure you're on the right net, making sure ACRE is working, whatever. Typical responses will be '5 by 5' or 'Loud and clear'. Probably don't transmit again and again until you get a response - People might be preoccupied! | ||
| + | ===SL Radios=== | ||
| + | If your squad leader dies, taking his radio is very much expected. Taking the radio of someone who is simply downed is done, but this is reserved for much more urgent situations, such as calling in contact. The medics typically have radio for a reason! Same thing goes for the RTO - Don't let those radios disappear. | ||
