I'll gently remind them that we use QSL or Roger instead of 10-4. Wouldn't a purist say that Q-codes should only be used in CW mode, and not on voice modes? I've heard it argued that Q-codes were shorthand phrases used in CW mode, and that on voice modes, folks ought to just say what they mean. Then, I've heard a number of folks discuss the use of prowords like "Roger" and "Clear." I've always thought it humorous to hear "Over and out." "I'll be clear on your final."
