"Actual", as in "''Galactica'' Actual" or "''Pegasus'' Actual" refers to a communication between one party and the '''''actual''''' commanding officer of the other party/entity, in '''''real time'''''. Instead of communication coming from the commanding officer, and being routed through the executive officer, then through a communications operator — the other party is, instead, talking to the '''''actual''''' CO directly. So the term "actual" is a radio or channel protocol, not a callsign. -- [[User:Hawke|Hawke]] 09:06, 17 March 2006 (CST) | "Actual", as in "''Galactica'' Actual" or "''Pegasus'' Actual" refers to a communication between one party and the '''''actual''''' commanding officer of the other party/entity, in '''''real time'''''.

Use of the term "Actual"
"Actual", as in "Galactica Actual" or "Pegasus Actual" refers to a communication between one party and the actual commanding officer of the other party/entity, in real time. Instead of communication coming from the commanding officer, and being routed through the executive officer, then through a communications operator — the other party is, instead, talking to the actual CO directly. So the term "actual" is a radio or channel protocol, not a callsign. -- Hawke 09:06, 17 March 2006 (CST)
