Which term is used to request that the last transmission be repeated?

• A. SAY AGAIN
• B. ROGER
• C. WAIT
• D. OVER

Answer: (A)

In radiotelephony, there are specific phrases to manage transmissions and keep communication clear. When you need the other person to repeat what they just said, you use the phrase that asks for repetition: say again. It directly signals that you didn’t hear or understand the last transmission and need it repeated. This distinguishes it from other terms: say again is about repetition, while roger means you heard and understood the message. Over marks the end of your transmission and that you’re awaiting a reply, not asking for repetition. Wait isn’t the standard term for asking someone to repeat; it isn’t used to request a repeat in formal radio communication.
