While using the International Code of Signals, how can the receiving station indicate that they are able to distinguish the flag signal of the transmitting station, but cannot understand the meaning of it?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) ZL.

This allows the receiving station to communicate that they have visually identified the signal, but do not comprehend the message being conveyed.
