Semaphore Flag Signalling System   
    The Semaphore flag signaling system is an alphabet signalling system  based on the waving of a pair of hand-held flags in a particular  pattern.

    You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login 

The flags are usually square, red and yellow, divided  diagonaly with the red portion in the upper hoist.

The flags are held, arms extended, in various positions representing  each of the letters of the alphabet.  The pattern resembles a clock face  divided into eight positions: up, down, out, high, low, for each of the  left and right hands (LH and RH) six letters require the hand to be  brought across the body so that both flags are on the same side.

One way to visualize the semaphore alphabet is in terms of circles: 

• first circle: A, B, C, D, E, F, G; 
• second circle: H, I, K, L, M, N (omitting J); 
• third circle: O, P, Q, R, S;   
• fourth circle: T, U, Y and 'annul'; 
• fifth circle: 'numeric', J (or 'alphabetic'), V; 
• sixth circle: W, X; 
• seventh circle: Z 

    In ther first circle, the letters A to C are made with the right arm,  and E to G with the left, and D with either as convenient.  In the  second circle, the right arm is kept still at the letter A position and  the left arm makes the movements; similarly in the remaining circles,  the right arm remains fixed while the left arm moves.  The arms are kept  straight when changing from one position to another.
