The whole code, #GJN8F-RT823. It needs nothing else: no city, no street, no network to read it back.

Said aloud, in Saint Andrew Parish

Grand Etang RT823: a name both people know, then the last five characters. They give back the exact code for anywhere within 4.0 km north or south and 5.2 km east or west of Grand Etang. Further away the same five name somewhere else, which is why the whole code is what goes on a sign.

Copied by hand, or read over a phone
