I could've sworn I had this set to mimic the codec call alert.

[checkin' the phone out]

[plzdontoustme]

What's a codec call?

[itcamefromcamp]

Oh, Toboe! 'Codec' refers to the radio system that I normally use to make calls in my line of work.

[plzdontoustme]

Radio?

[itcamefromcamp]

A radio lets you talk to someone without being near them by sending out radio waves on certain frequencies. Anyone with a radio set to the right frequency can hear what you're saying!

[plzdontoustme]

Oh, like howling to let others know where you are.

[itcamefromcamp]

It's...similar, I suppose. But you can communicate a lot more complex things that just your location when you use a radio.

[plzdontoustme]

Complex things?

[itcamefromcamp]

Complex things, like instructions on how to treat an injury!

[plzdontoustme]

Oh, that sounds really important!

[itcamefromcamp]

It's truly a marvel of technology. If SIGINT were here, I could have had him explain more about it.

[plzdontoustme]

SIGINT?

[itcamefromcamp]

SIGINT is someone I work with. Just like I provide medical support over the radio, he provides support and information about field equipment.

[plzdontoustme]

Like gardening... things?

[itcamefromcamp]

Anything, really. Weapons, camouflage, tools, boxes--anything you might use on a sneaking mission.

[plzdontoustme]

Sneaking mission? Is that like hunting?
