70% to passHow should the letter "D" be pronounced when spoken on the radiotelephone?
A
DA VID
B
DOG
C
DELL TAH
D
DUKE
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) DELL TAH. The International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, also known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, is the standard way of pronouncing letters over the radio to ensure clarity and avoid confusion. According to this standard, the letter "D" should be pronounced as "DELL TAH" when spoken on the radiotelephone. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the established NATO phonetic alphabet. Option A) "DA VID" is not the correct pronunciation, and options B) "DOG" and D) "DUKE" are for other letters in the alphabet, not "D".
