In a message sent by flashing light, what group of letters will direct the receiver of a message to repeat the transmission back to the sender?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) RPT. The International Code of Signals states that the group of letters "RPT" will direct the receiver of a message transmitted by flashing light to repeat the transmission back to the sender. This is a standard procedure used to ensure the message is received accurately. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not correspond to the established protocol for requesting a message repeat. UD AA, RPB, and REPEAT are not the standardized signals used for this purpose in maritime communications.
