Konu: 44 Nedir?

[TA3EP]

Son zamanlarda ecnebi istasyonlar tarafından HF bantlarda yapılan QSO larda "44" (forty four) kelimesi duyuyorum. Özellikle Rusya yerleşimli amatörler bunu çok kullanıyor ve sanırım 73 yerine kullanıyor.

Yine de bir sorayım dedim, nedir bu 44 ün anlamı, sakat bir şey ise gafil kalmayalım :)

Sorunuzun bir sitede rastladığım yanıtı:

In 1859, Western Union standardized on the "92 code" in which the numbers from 1 to 92 were assigned meanings. It was in this list that 73 got its present meaning. Later more numbers were added. Here's a partial list:

1  Wait a moment 
2  Important Business 
3  What time is it? 
4  Where shall I go ahead? 
5  Have you business for me? 
6  I am ready 
7  Are you ready? 
8  Close your key; circuit is busy 
9  Close your key for priority business (Wire chief, dispatcher, etc)
10  Keep this circuit closed 
12  Do you understand? 
13  I understand 
14  What is the weather? 
15  For you and other to copy 
17  Lightning here 
18  What is the trouble? 
19  Form 19 train order 
21  Stop for a meal 
22  Wire test 
23  All copy 
24  Repeat this back 
25  Busy on another wire 
26  Put on ground wire 
27  Priority, very important 
28  Do you get my writing? 
29  Private, deliver in sealed envelope 
30  No more (end)

33  Car report (Also, answer is paid for) 
34  Message for all officers 
35  You may use my signal to answer this 
37  Diversion (Also, inform all interested) 
39  Important, with priority on thru wire (Also, sleep-car report) 
44  Answer promptly by wire 
73  Best regards 
88  Love and kisses 
91  Superintendent's signal

99 Defol (kovmak) anlamına geliyor.
