Default Re: Greetings from Darmain

Hi Dave standard call signs (membership number) as shown in signatures and on the vehicles. We tend to avoid 10 -codes Q- codes etc. They can easily add to confusion.



For instance 10-4

used in the USA means message understood.

used by some UK Police services means on scene

used by some UK fire services means mobile from scene returning to station.



General guidance from the "powers that be" is that wherever possible messages should be in 'clear english'. That way everyone understands the message.
