NTS 2.0 NUMBERED RADIOGRAM TEXTS
Rev. 20230525
Numbered messages have been established for some of the more common texts sent during emergencies and holiday seasons. When this common text can be used, an ARL NUMBER is substituted for the text and sent. The delivering station reads the actual text to the address, not the ARL NUMBER.

In order to facilitate compatibility between ARRL and RRI and minimize differences in the traffic system, the ARRL recognizes the additional RRC numbered radiograms that RRI developed in late 2022 and has adopted those verbatim into the ARL numbered radiogram list.
The letters ARL are inserted in the preamble in the check and in the text before spelled out numbers, which represent texts from this list. Note that ARL is included in the text before spelled out numbers, which represent texts from this list. Note that some ARL texts include insertion of numerals or words.
‡ New ARL text to be used in conjunction with HXD
