RADIO CHECK
PROWORDWhat is my signal strength and readability; how do you hear me?
On air
“Alfa One, this is Bravo Two, radio check. Over.”
“All stations, this is Viper Six. Radio check. Over.”
“Raven Three, this is Raven Three-One. Radio check on alternate. Over.”
In conversation
Do a radio check before you leave the patrol base.
A radio check should be short: call, answer, out.
