Under marginal conditions (which includes cell-phone calls) I use alpha / bravo 
/ charlie / ... / x-ray / yankee / zulu.  But "zed" is probably unmistakable.

I'm always surprised how many help-desk folks are perfectly comfortable with 
that alphabet.

I've always pronounced my ham callsign kay five zed see ...but I use "zee"
elsewhere. "Zed" works better under marginal conditions.
