WIG-WAG RULES

1. The boy should face the person to whom he is signalling, and should hold the flag-staff vertically in front of the centre of his body, with the butt at the height of his waist.

2. The motion represented by the Figure 1 is made by waving the flag down to the right; 2, by waving it down to the left; and 3, by waving it down in front of the sender. (Page 188)

3. Each motion should embrace an arc of ninety degrees, starting from and returning to the vertical without a pause.

4. When two or more motions are required to make a letter, there should be no pause between the motions.

5. At the end of each letter there should be a slight pause at the vertical.

6. At the end of each word, one front motion (3) should be made; at the end of a sentence, two fronts (33); and at the end of a message, three fronts (333).

7. To call a boat, signal the initial letter of her name until answered. To answer a call, signal A.A. 3 (I understand).

8. If the sender makes an error he should immediately signal E.E. 3 (I have made an error), and resume the message, beginning with the last word sent correctly.
