JerseyRider Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Welcome! For some reason your title kicked the Radio Op part of my airsofting brain into gear... N95X This is N95A, All stations check in N95A this is N95B Checking in N95A This is N95C Checking in.... Etc Etc..... (BTW the first callsign "N95X" is a all stations Prefix because is has X at the end ) See you learn something new everyday.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Force Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Welcome to the forums I find it funny how people say over and out. Over is when you've finished your mesage whilst out is when you've stopped talking to them completely. Very common mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cox Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Over & out is a 1970's Z-Cars thing. Not heard that from anyone currently using radio comms, though I'm sure they're out there giving us all a good giggle! My personal favorite of amateur casual Radio users (or 'Radio-on-a-stick exponents, as i like to call them) track marshalls, volunteer medical or security, etc, is when they say "Pass yer message", usually with a thick regional accent and a heavy lisp....
