I am not a fan of crazy lingos plain English will always be the way I like it. But I understand whatever they do works for them. Is there a specific reason why they say K after every transmission? I want to learn something new today .lol

Ending a transmission with K was explained to me this way: When the message sender ends their transmission with K, a reply is expected to that message.
