One key thing y'all should know. If you want something repeated back to you, because you didn't understand nor heard correctly, DON'T SAY "repeat". That's a word used for artillery whenever you want another bombardment. You use "Say Again" to relay that one. (From what I was taught at Basic.

This old SGT learned about the CVC the hard way. I was in a light infantry unit and had never been on a vehicle crew. However, I was "volunteered" to work with a Bradley unit on the range at Ft. Stewart in 1989. During night fire qualification, I was spotting the rounds downrange with one of the Bradley Gunners in the turret. He had to step out for a while, handed me the CVC, but didn't explain the switch positions. I didn't realize it was set to broadcast over the net until I was into the 2nd part of Hotel California!!!! I wasn't volunteered again for a while!!!

Interesting hearing US army radio voice procedure. A bit different than how we did it in the Canadian Army when I was a radio operator, but pretty close. Our callsigns are usually phonetic letter combinations, we never give any personal identifying information on the net, and if someone f's up, we issue a "beadwindow." We also only ever use words twice if the other call sign has a weak or unreadable signal. We also put huge emphasis on minimizing transmissions because a huge part of our training is to counter electronic warfare direction finding. I suppose since the US has some of the best EW on the planet it's less of a concern.

Chris, As a former member of US Army MARS, I enjoyed your spot-on video.

I was trained that when you're done talking you don't just say out. If you just say out it's perceived as being rude as if the caller is intentionally cutting off the conversation as a show of anger and displeasure. It's the equivalent of slamming the door as you leave a room. I was trained to always end with "If nothing further, callsign out." It's silly but that's why it's called "radio etiquette" and not "radio talk"

The phonetic alphabet was the first thing I learned right after I signed the dotted line.

Choas6 this is Evi Lightning. Report video watched and targets suppressed. Over.
So did I do that correctly Chris? 🤷‍♀️

In my experience, I've learned to say "hey you, this is me" twice instead of "you, you, this is me". Lost count of how many times something would go out and everyone would go "who was that to?", but there's a thousand ways to skin a cat and they all get the job done.

I've also been told I had a good radio voice and played RTO for various points in my stint. Radio voice as in, monotone, flat pitch, slowly vocalized terminology, clear and concise speaking without stuttering or messing up words. Closest thing I can equate it to is the Harrier unit barks from Red Alert 2, of all things, minus the southern drawl, obviously.

RTO blows though and if you like sleep, don't volunteer for it or you'll be filling the same fucklechuck's radio 4 times because it magically clears itself through no fault of their own, and no, they don't need a refresher, how dare you suggest it. Any moron can operate a radio and they've been doing this since Jesus rode dinosaurs. Yada yada.
