[edit] Phonetic Alphabet

Certain letters of the alphabet sound alike over the air, like "A" and "H", and also "B" and "V." To avoid confusion, a Phonetic Alphabet Scheme is used in dispatching and routine communications. It works by using specific words to represent each letter of the alphabet:

A Apple B Boy C Charles D David E Edward F Frank G George H Henry I Ida J John K King L Lincoln M Meghan N Nora

O Ocean P Paul Q Queen R Robert S Sam T Tom U Union V Victor W William X X-Ray Y Yellow Z Zebra



Here is the Swedish phonetic alphabet:

A Adam B Bertil C Cesar D David E Erik F Filip G Gustav H Helge I Ivar J Johan K Kalle L Ludvig M Martin N Niklas

O Olof P Petter Q Qvintus R Rudolf S Sigurd T Tore U Urban V Viktor W Wilhelm X Xerxes Y Yngve Z Zäta

Å Åke Ä Ärlig Ö Östen
