What is an appropriate way to call another station on a repeater if you know the other station's call sign?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. Say the station's call sign, then identify with your call sign
On a repeater you simply say the other station's call sign, then identify with your own call sign. There is no need for "CQ" when you know who you want. "Break, break" is reserved for urgent or emergency traffic, so don't use it for an ordinary call.
Tip: Them first, then you: "W1ABC, this is K2XYZ."
