Default Don't be rude on the radio


Regardless of whether anybody agrees with the OP, I think the "PSA"
requesting that people not be rude on the radio has merit.

If we just disregard the conventions and what seems like an unwritten
gentleman's agreement as to conduct on the radio, it won't be long before
somebody starts calling out "TEN FOUR" or "BREAKER BREAKER PODUNK
TRAFFIC..." If there are students in the air and they hear
unprofessional conduct, they will learn to expect this as acceptable
behavior in radio communication.
