9) ADDRESSEE (Mandatory)
The name(s) and address of the person to which this message is going. It
looks like the address on an envelope used in regular U.S. Mail. Include a
phone number, as it is really important for a speedy delivery. The more
information here, the easier the delivery will be.
Example:
GEORGE R HAMILTON
1234 BRUSHY CREEK DRIVE
BANDERA TX 99877
As phone figures: 919 555 1234
10) DELIVERING STATION INFO (Optional)
This section is rarely used. If the message is to be mailed or hand
delivered, it is nice to put your (the delivering station) info here, so
the addressee can reach you if there is any question, or they want to send
a return message. Most messages are delivered by phone.
11) TEXT (Mandatory)
Finally! This is the message you are sending for the signature person to
the addressee. It should be short (usually less than 25 words), and in
telegram style. No punctuation is used. The letter "X" is used (similar to
STOP in telegrams) to end one idea and start another. Many messages do not
even have an "X" in them.
Example TEXT:
ARRIVE 7PM DEC 24 X
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU
X LOVE
The above TEXT has a count of 12. So the CHECK is 12. As Amateur Radio is
non-commercial, the TEXT should have no commercial value. Each Radio
Amateur is the judge of what is commercial and what is not.
12) SIGNATURE (Mandatory)
This is the name if the person sending the message. It may be the name or
call of the originating station. However, it is usually the name of a
"third party", for whom the originating station is generating the message.
13) AMATUER STATION (Optional)
Used for identifying an amateur radio station along with their signature.
It doesn't have to be the originating station of the message.
14) Delivery Date and Time (Optional)
(Not found on original radiogram I modified the original for my needs.)
This I use for keeping record of when I delivered the radiogram.
15) Additional Comments (Optional)
(Not found on original radiogram I modified the original for my needs.)
This I use for op. notes and if I left message with an alternate person
other than the addressee strictly for my notes..
16) RECEIVED (Optional)
This is for the handling station to write down whom they received the
message from. This field is only for the book keeping of the handling
station.
17) SENT (Optional)
This is for the handling station to write down whom they sent the message
to. This field is only for the book keeping of the handling station.
