Phonetic Alphabet

If radio communications was as clear and understandable as face-to-face communications, there would be no need to use special procedures when talking on the radio. Radio communications, however, can vary widely from extremely clear to barely intelligible. Because of this, there are certain rules of pronunciation when you are talking on a radio circuit. The phonetic alphabet employs these rules. Many times during radio communications you may need to say letters or numbers in the course of conversation. For example, call signs are made up of letters and numbers. If you only pronounce the name of the letter or number, the operator on the other end could confuse it with another letter or number. Spoken, the letter B sounds very much like P, V, or D. Likewise, the numbers nine and five often sound alike. The phonetic alphabet was designed to eliminate this confusion. Each letter and number has a distinct and understandable word associated with it.

Use the phonetic alphabet to transmit isolated letters, transmit each letter of an abbreviation, spell out unusual or difficult words.

Transmit multiple digit numbers digit by digit. Two exceptions to this are when transmitting exact multiples of thousands and when identifying a specific code group in a coded message. When calling for or adjusting field artillery or mortar fire, it is necessary to transmit, when applicable, exact multiples of hundreds and thousands using the appropriate noun. The following tables list the numbers and their phonetic pronunciation:
