Congratulations on learning the perils of V/UHF early on in your ham life. Now you've been there, you'll never have to go there again. In my area, repeaters in particular are used as an example of how *not* to operate. Have you found out what aspect of the hobby floats your goat yet? The atmosphere on 4M (70MHz) is nice, because as yet it hasn't been ruined by the armchair black box collectors. Or you could get a cheapy HF and string some wire up, the world is your croissant.
I make my own phonetic alphabet up as I go along. If people don't like it they can QSO with someone else.
