HISTORY

• THE SIGNAL CORPS WAS CREATED IN 1936,


SHORTLY AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE
NATIONAL DEFENSE ACT, AS ONE OF THE
TECHNICAL SERVICES OF THE PHILIPPINE
ARMY. IT WAS GIVEN THE MISSION OF

WIRES AND CABLES

- is
the use of field wires,
combat wires, drop wires
and telephone cables.
MEANS OF COMMUNICATION

WIRES AND CABLES

Wire Comm – is one of the most dependable


communication means.

CABLE - a group of metallic conductors, insulated


from each other and made up by pairs into one unit
with a suitable continuous covering of sheath.
MEANS OF COMMUNICATION

WIRES & CABLES: Advantages


Uses field wires and cables,
telephones and switchboards to
provide person-to-person
conversations,

Integrates with radio systems.


WIRES & CABLES: Advantages
More secure than radio.

Reduces probability of interception.

Desirable in defensive operations.


WIRES & CABLES: WEAK POINTS

Requires more time, personnel,


and equipment to maintain.
Loss of signal over long distances
without repeaters.
Subject to wiretap.

GUIDELINES FOR RADIO TRANSMISSION

• Always write your message before transmitting

• Always listen before starting to talk.

• When about to talk press down the button of the side


of the handset and do not talk until the hissing sound
ceases.

• Talk directly into the microphone


GUIDELINES FOR RADIO TRANSMISSION

• Speak distinctly and enunciate each word in normal tone


to allow the receiving operator time for copying.

• Release the push-to-talk button immediately after the


completion of your transmission, otherwise you will not hear
the other station.

• Camouflage your radio set when carrying it with your


back, bend the whip antenna slightly downward into the rear
to make it inconspicuous to the enemy.

• Collective Call Sign
 Identifies two or more stations in a particular radio
net but not all stations in the net.
FUNDAMENTALS OF TACTICAL RADIO COMMUNICATION

• Net Call Sign


 Identifies all radio stations operating in a
particular radio net.
• Call
 A method of establishing communication whereby
the station calling transmits the identity of the
station called as well as his own identity.
