Still don’t get 5:5 (?)

Pronounced 5 by 5.

Think of it like the police "ten code" when somebody asks for a radio check.

10-1

Unable to Copy/Signal Weak

10-2

Signal Good

_____________

5:5 = 10-2

sidebar: Listening to the Corsi discord channel, they say five by five all the time. Drives me crazy. The couldn't sound any more nerdier. Funny to listen to old ladies and dorks keep saying five by five like they're friggin special operators. Hahaha. Somebody tell 'em Bagster said so and knock it off. :)

p.s. Nothin' against old ladies, don't get me wrong (Mears).

Is Corsi back up and running?

Heard he was sick, so prayed for his return to health. If he’s back, gotta say some thank yous. :-)

5 by 5 could be nostalgia to them from field radio days.

BTW, you have a teflon reputation. No need to be concerned! LOL.
