USING THE PHONETIC ALPHABET

A phonetic alphabet or special word list is recommended to use in identifying
station calls or difficult words as necessary.
The list helps to avoid facetious word combinations. This gives it greatest
acceptability to all amateurs.
Use of a standard list is recommended by ARRL. Haphazard selection of
words often results in confusion. A degree of uniformity in use of phonetic
words reflects favorably on your individual operating and on the whole amateur
services.                     ( Courtesy of the American Radio Relay League, Inc.)
