Untuk fonetik 1938 dan 1947, setiap pengucapan angka didahului dan diikuti oleh pengucapan "as a number" sebanyak dua kali.
ITU mengadopsi alfabet eja fonetik International Maritime Organization pada tahun 1959. Tahun 1969, ITU menyatakan alasannya "untuk diterapkan pada komunikasi laut saja".
Pengucapan tidak ditetapkan sebelum 1959. Untuk fonetik 1959–sekarang, suku kata bergaris bawah di setiap kata-huruf harus dipertegas dan setiap suku kata kode angka (1969–sekarang) juga harus dipertegas.
