Read the first 7 Communication & Radio Protocols flashcards as text

  1. Which proword means "I have received your last transmission satisfactorily"?

    Answer: ROGER

    ROGER confirms receipt only; it does not promise compliance.

  2. A lane NCOIC radios an instruction and the grader intends to carry it out. Which proword is correct?

    Answer: WILCO

    WILCO means 'I have received your message, understand it, and will comply,' so adding ROGER is redundant.

  3. Why is "OVER and OUT" incorrect radio procedure?

    Answer: OVER asks for a reply while OUT ends the transmission, so they contradict each other

    OVER invites a response and OUT ends the exchange with no response expected, so they cannot be used together.

  4. A grader missed part of a transmission about a lane change. What should they transmit?

    Answer: SAY AGAIN

    SAY AGAIN is the correct request for retransmission; REPEAT is an artillery fire command.

  5. In the phonetic alphabet, how is the lane designation "L-4" spoken over the radio?

    Answer: Lima Fower

    Military pronunciation uses Lima for L and 'FOW-er' for 4.

  6. What is the main reason graders read back scores to the scorecard recorder?

    Answer: To confirm the correct value is recorded and catch transcription errors

    Read-back closes the communication loop and prevents recording errors.

  7. A grader hears a radio call for a medical emergency on the next lane. What should they do first with their own net traffic?

    Answer: Stop transmitting and keep the net clear for emergency traffic

    Emergency traffic takes priority, so other stations stay off the net unless called.
