^ Some German numerals have a radio accent. The numbers in question are:

ZWEI pronounced by some TXs, as TSWO.
FUNF some pronounce it as FUNUF.
NEUN pronounced by some as NEUGEN.

This is totally in keeping with some German armed forces stations and corresponds to our WUN, FOWER, FIFE, NINER

	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9

Notes:

*Nula heard as nul
^ Jeden heard as yedinar
‘ Tri heard as ‘she’
~ Osoom often heard as bosoom or vosoom.

*For S04:

0 is Nuar

The figure 8 Osem Sounds like Arthur
The figure 9 Devet Sounds like David.
