You don't need the lingo but you need to get their attention. If you can key up and take over the frequency you don't have to repeat yourself or talk a certain way.

The guys that repeat themselves over and over trying to get acknowledged are usually weak or have bad conditions. You rarely get to talk with them after you've made contact with them. Pay attention to the s meter. Most of the time the stronger they are the more likely they are to hear you.

Don't forget about good old politics. Guys that know each other will sometimes keep talking as if they can't hear you. I've caught them by using a Jamaican accent and called them out on it when they took the bait.
