Well, if it was me I would describe channel 71 as channel

seven-one, not
one-seven....

Give the channel number in two digits. [i.e.

channel 71 would be
"one-seven, over"


When you verbally gave someone the phone number,

847-9129, would you
say, "Call me at Eight hundred and forty seven hyphen

nine thousand
and twenty nine"?


Don't forget that channel 70 is spoken as, "Channel

seven zero", not
"channel seven oh".
