Radio Transmission Speech

Negative — No
Loud and clear — I understand what you say.

Out — I have finished talking to you and do not expect a reply.
Clear — I have finished talking to you and will be shutting my radio off.
Roger — Information received/understood.
Copy — I understand what you just said (after receiving information).
Wilco — Will comply (after receiving new directions).
Go ahead or Send your traffic — Send your transmission.
Say again — Please repeat your last message (Repeat is not used as it is a specific command when calling for artillery fire)
Standby or Wait one — Pause for the next transmission. This usually entails staying off the air until the operator returns after a short wait.
(Callsign)-Actual — Sometimes an individual (generally a superior) may have a person monitor the network for them. Saying "actual" after their callsign asserts you wish to speak to the specific person the callsign is attached to. So say I am riding in a humvee and I am the one in charge of this convoy. If the General needs to speak to me and my callsign in Denver and my humvee in 78 he will say "Denver Seven Eight Actual, come in."
