Description:
Have you ever tried to spell a word on the phone?
I did it... S sounds like F, P like B... You are always forced to use a spelling alphabet (i.e. S=Sam, F=Frank and so on).
This small applications helps you while you are on the phone: Spell instantly becomes Sam-Paul-Edward-Lincoln-Lincoln :-)

Any chance of getting the non-NATO & non-US law enforcement phonetic alphabets for other languages (such as Vietnamese which does use a latinate alphabet)?

Apologies to the author, but I used Quartus RsrcEdit and changed all the letter-equivalents to the "NATO" words! Worked like a charm. In resource tFRM 1003, you go to List1011 and one-by-one, manually reassign whatever words you like.

Actually, the alphabet given in this application is the one most widely used by law enforcement officers and I for one have used both (Having served in the military) and find that this is by far, the easiest. Good job!

Great concept. However, to impliment the Phonetic Alphabet (as others have said) is a definite for the next release. This will make it practical and applicable for international use. No one wants to use unconventional "words-fo-spelling". This mod will make this program tops! Maybe even add a feature that helps learning the phonetic alphabet?

Let me know when it uses the internationally accepted NATO phonetic alphabet, to use any other creates confusion rather than simplifies spelling.

Looks good, but I think it should use the universal radio alphabet (eg A=Alpha, B=Beta, C=Charlie, etc).

It would be better if the program used the NATO phonetic alphabet. The NATO Phonetic Alphabet is now widely used in business and telecommunications in Europe and North America.
A - Alpha, B - Bravo, C - Charlie, D - Delta, E - Echo, F - Foxtrot, G - Golf, H - Hotel, I - India, J - Juliet, K - Kilo, L - Lima, M - Mike, N - November, O - Oscar, P - Papa, Q - Quebec, R - Romeo, S - Sierra, T - Tango, U - Uniform, V - Victor, W - Whiskey, X - X-ray, Y - Yankee, Z - Zulu.
