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".

Those listening on scan mode can flip the correct channel.
