CALLING
This chapter explains how to make and answer calls. It also
describes Turbo Code and how to interrupt the other person
during a conversation.
TTY etiquette
During a TTY call, there are four commonly used abbreviations
that you and the other person can type to help your conversation
along:
GA , Q , SK , and GA or SK .
GA means “go ahead.” Type GA or press the key when you
want the other person to begin typing. When you see GA on the
display, it is your turn to type.
Q means “question.” Some people prefer to type Q instead of a
question mark because it saves time and is easier to type.
SK means “stop keying.” Type SK or press the key when you
want to end your conversation. When you see SK on the display, it
means that the other person is finished with the conversation.
Type
GA or SK
when you are finished with the conversation but
think the other person may have something to add. GA or SK is a
convenient way to tell the other person that you are
finished unless he or she has more to add.
For more TTY abbreviations that you can use during a conversation,
see
