6 Job 1: Basic Admin Voice Procedure

7 Job 1: Basic Admin Voice Basic Terminology Call SignTransmitter Radio Net Receiver Radio NetOperator CallEnding SignRadio Station

8 Call sign A unique ‘name’ for a person/station on a radio net. Transmitter A device that is capable of transmitting an electromagnetic signal but cannot receive them. Closing Down Ending a transmission.

9 Operator A ‘name’ for a person using a radio set to transmit/receive messages. Call A Message sent between operators can be initial or general. Ending Sign Finish transmitting messages, using the words over OR out.

10 Receiver A device able to receive electromagnetic signals but unable to broadcast. Radio Check Test strength/readability of your signal. Radio Station A place capable of transmitting/receiving or varying size.

11 Basic ProWords Admin Voice Procedure: Standard language on Radios Roger Say AgainOver Out

12 Roger Acknowledgement and total understanding of last message received. Say Again Ask to repeat message because it was not heard or misunderstood.

13 Over Acknowledgement of receipt of last message. Out Acknowledgement of receipt of last message sent no reply expected.

14 Calling another Station When calling another station you make an initial call, this is to confirm they can hear you. MF99 this is MJ99 over this is MF99 over

15 Types of Net Directed: A net where permission is required to transmit, think of it as a controlled airway. Free: An airway where no control is exercised, hence ‘free’ Engineering: Discuss equipment and set ups.

16 Sending them a Message... MF99 this is MJ99, We will be commencing Pulling training at 1200 Zulu, over What ProWord would you acknowledge it with if: i)You heard it clearly? ii)You didn’t quite make it out?

17 Now for something practical… Radio Check: Check quality and loudness of transmission 1: GF99 this is GG99, radio check, over 2: this is GF99 ______________ over 2: this is GG99, ____________ out

18 Radio Check Quality & Loudness Loudness:Quality: LoudSay as Roger Clear Good Readable Weak Distorted Very Weak With interference Fading Intermittent Grab a partner and have a go at experimenting!

19 Closing down When finished transmitting, you MUST close down! You must ask permission first, you can specify a time period. Then.... GF99 this is GG99, closing down at 1100 ZULU, OUT

20 Date/Time Groups Format: DDHHMMSS(A/Z) Mon YYYY i.e 251606Z May 2010 Set by NATO Time zones, different letters in different countries

21 DTG’s (2) 28 1545 ZSEP10 DayTimeTime ZoneMonthYear

22 Precedence's Z = FLASH NOT TO USED BY SCC O = IMMEDIATE P = PRIORITY R = ROUTINE How ‘urgent’ the message is, kind of like a 2 nd or 1 st class stamp

23 Protective Markings Top Secret = TSEC Secret = SEC Confidential = CONF Restricted = REST Unclassified = UNCLAS

24 Any Questions?

25 Job 2: Introduction to Data Communications

26 What is Data Communications? Data Communications is where the communications goes through a digital source. Some examples: Internet, fax machine, text message. Less susceptible to interference Error Detection Clarity Multiplexing

27 Data Communications block diagram PC TNC VHF TX/RX AERIAL PC – Human Interface TNC – Digital to analogue signal and reverse Tx/Rx – Converts to electromagnetic signal (Radio Wave)

28 Any Questions?

46 Job 4: The Phonetic Alphabet

47 The Phonetic Alphabet What is it? The Phonetic Alphabet is the alphabet, but instead of using single letters like A, B, C, we use words which begin with the letter, i.e. A = Alpha. When speaking on a radio or telephone, it stops any ambiguity.
