HH=household, sorry for the confusion. I’m big on acronyms, saves time.

Well I forgive you, because I was a USAF Tech Controller constantly communicating with stations down the line on teletype links where we used Q & Z signals from ACP 131-1, along with our own abbreviating short-talk, such as "INT QRK, how copy?"

I would have understood had you not made it in caps, as household is hh, not HH.

My own pro-sign was hm.   kkkkk/hm
