    The only thing I will add is the communication was very congested... and to your question kman there are very few places i know of that use command to all elements... usually radio protocol dictates that it goes YOU [Alpha] ME [Command] with the message being after this. Think of it like a verbal handshake. It takes a lot of practice to know what to say on the radio and how to say it. If you ADD a bunch of words like the movies or tv shows the message will be very long and maybe hard to digest. Before you press the PTT button think of what you want to say and then shorten it by filtering out non-essential words. Think of radio traffic like a precious metal, hard to come by and is extremely valuable...so you do not want to waste it with long drawn out conversations, especially when it could save someones or a squads life.  

     

      Alpha this is Command. ISR has reported the location of the drone to be in north east of the forest and is currently having troops approach it from the east. That is a lot of info to digest with many filler words being put in.

     

      Try, Alpha, Command. ISR marked drone on map, enemies approaching from the east. Short, simple and easy to digest even if you are in a firefight.

      I didn’t really have a problem with the coms until I died and the frequency reset, reinsert heli was at base and I started reprogramming and then got rushed because the pilot got impatient which I understand why. I had my own squads channel, command channel and deltas channel set up so I could easily switch between them when I heard bravo being called at the beginning of the op.
      Now on this op I was in charge of bravo and coordinating with delta, command and fac. Now doing this with a short range radio on a map that is what 5x5km which is within the radios transmission range made things simpler and helped with stamina as I wasn’t carrying the long range radio pack so having that would be cumbersome especially when it’s really not required because of the small map. So taking the extra time to set up the additional channels when you die and are at spawn awaiting reinsert helis to show up may kill the time.
      Now I have a lot of radio experience from my years in the fire dept and my job where I use it everyday helps knowing how and when to transmit. A rule of thumb I use is to think of what you want to say then think of how I can make it more clear and especially short to cut down on unneeded radio traffic (again this came with over a decade of using radios in a professional environment). A lot of radio traffic will affect the outcome of any op as you are painting a picture for the commander via radio transmissions.
      Now you can give him clear and short instructions like “move the paintbrush from the middle and go up” (clear and short) or “put your paintbrush in the middle of the canvas and move it up in a slow manner until you are just about at the top then stop” (yes it is clear, but long).

      You can either give him clear and short instructions allowing for other radio traffic that might be more important to come through or give him clear but long drawn out instructions that may get confusing and impedes other important radio traffic that needs to be sent to command.
