I think "sugar victor" would be the best one to use. Sacramento Valley has a C in it. If (and this is a big IF) we ever got to the point of removing QSOs from both logs - being in Sacramento Valley,

I frequently make this mistake on SSB. I'm not from California, and at 150+/hr it is easy for me to make this mistake. I always have to think twice when someone says "Sacramento Valley". My thoughts

Don't feel bad, as much as we try to tell stations, they continue to log San Diego as SD and not SDG I don't know the solution to this one either and it costs us every year in SS SSB. 73, Dennis N6KI

Yeah, but...the name of the ARRL section is "Sacramento Valley" not "sugar victor". And the rules say to send your ARRL section name. But I agree, it is probably best to get into the habit of saying

Hi everyone - good point Bill. It's easy to overestimate the English language skills of guys working us in ARRL SSB, for example. I routinely hear them hovering over the keyboard with the mike open,

<< Maybe we can lobby to get the section split in two and have "Southern Sacramento Valley" and "Northern Sacramento Valley"! I think you should change it to River City Section- RC :-} In DX tests, I

After wading through about 30 messages on this thread, a couple of things come to mind. 1. ( US op only )If you can't sit down and write out the name of every State, and it's correct postal abbreviat

I never really thought much about giving the state/section abbreviation phonetically. In pronunciation, Michigan does not seem to need phonetics, when you're running people or signals are loud. Howev
