squawking standby
What a stupid phrase ! Sqwarking indicates 'transmitting' and standby indicates 'not transmitting' so what they are really telling you is to "transmit not transmit". Whats wrong with 'turn off your transponder'???

Here we go again, making everything more complicated than it has to be becasue we're British
