Ham Radio Tutorial: YL Raisa introduces how to spell Russian Callsigns during a QSO

I decided to illustrate the Russian pronunciation (spelling) of the Latin letters that we use in the Ham Callsigns. Many Radio Amateurs are already working with Russian ham operators using the Russian Phonetic Alphabet. It is always very pleasant when you hear your own native language.
Most letters can be spelled by using Russian names, but there are some special letters - there are no names starting with these Latin letters! So in some cases even the names of fish are used.
Write your ideas in the comments, on how I could be helpful in my videos!
And lets do a small Flashmob! You are recording a short video in which you tell your own Callsign using the Russian phonetic alphabet after my little lesson.You publish your video on your Facebook or Instagram as Stories and mark the hashtag #ylraisa and after this I will repost it in my Stories.
And we'll have a little fun together!

Thank you Raisa I'm French, I have my exam for the license today, ❤❤

dear Raisa, I see this video is four - three years old, but I just found it... I only have 11meter band (CB) callsign and (or) HAM SWL number, but I really like your video! один ноль девять Харитон Анна ноль девять один odin nol' devyat' Khariton Anna nol' devyat' odin Харитон Анна ноль ноль четыре пять Khariton Anna nol' nol' chetyre pyat' Az elmúlt hetekben rengeteg orosz CB állomást hallottam, de nem tudtam velük beszélni. I've been hearing a lot of Russian CB radio stations for the past few weeks, but I haven't been able to talk to them... Köszönöm ezt a videót! Thanks for this videó! Üdvözlettel Magyarországról Greetings from Hungary!

Thank you Raisa. It's very helpful. In germany we use the international alphabet (Alfa, Bravo,...) for ham-radio and military. But we have also a german spelling alphabet. It's used by police, for example. A - Anton B - Berta C- Cäsar (Caesar) D - Dora E - Emil F - Friedrich G - Gustav H - Heinrich I - Ida J - Julius K - Kaufmann (transl.: businessman, trader, small storekeeper, owner of a shop) L - Ludwig M - Martha N - Nordpol (transl.: Northpole) O- Otto P - Paula Q - Quelle (transl.: source, water spring) R - Richard S - Siegfried (also: Samuel) T - Theodor U - Ulrich V - Viktor W - Wilhelm X - Xanthippe Y - Ypsilon Z - Zeppelin (air ship) 0 - Null 1 - Eins 2 - Zwei 3 - Drei 4 - Vier 5 - Fünf 6 - Sechs 7 - Sieben 8 - Acht 9 - Neun Thank you for your explaining video, vy 55 73 and 88 Dmitry Fedor Dva Elena Anna Nikolay - Fedor Roman Anna Nikolay Konstantin

Hi Raissa, I´ve a old Soviet Military manual for radio operator. There is mentioned the following spelling: Adam Bozena Cyril Chenek David Emil Frantisek Gustav Helena CHrudim Ivan Josef Karel Ludvik Marie Neruda Otaker Petr Quido Rudolf Rehor Svatopluk SCarka Tomas Urban Vaclav Wdvojite Xaver Ypsilon Zuzana Zofie Many years ago I spent months to learn this spelling code. Following your experience, is it applicable?

[@YLRaisa]

I can assume that this variant is similar to the Czech one, but it is definitely not the Russian.

[@pipespb]

It's not rusian. Possible is poland.
