I'm with the others who say to use what works.  e.g. Alpha and Delta can 
sound identical in difficult conditions.  Switch to America and Denmark 
and you'll get through.

I too try to use phonetics familiar to the listener.  e.g. to a JA I'm 
sometimes Victor Echo 7 Fujiyama Osaka.  Had several of them laugh at me 
- don't know why.

Another big winner was during the Florida QSO Party when I was Volusia 
Escambia 7 Flagler Osceola.  Just about made a mobile have an accident 
with that one.

73, Jim   VE7FO
