5. What action should be taken if the frequency on which a net normally meets is in use just before the net begins? *

1 point

a) Reduce your output power and start the net as usual

b) Increase your power output so that net participants will be able to hear you

c) Ask the stations if the net may use the frequency, or move the net to a nearby clear frequency if necessary

d) Cancel the net for that day

6. Which of the following is an advantage when using single sideband as compared to other voice modes on the HF amateur bands? *

1 point

a) Very high fidelity voice modulation

b) Less bandwidth used and high power efficiency

7. What is an azimuthal projection map? *

1 point

a) A world map projection centered on the North Pole

b) A world map projection centered on a particular location

c) A world map that shows the angle at which an amateur satellite crosses the equator

d) A world map that shows the number of degrees longitude that an amateur satellite appears to move westward at the equator with each orbit

8. How do you call another station on a repeater if you know the station\'s call sign? *

1 point

a) Say "break, break" then say the station's call sign

b) Say the station's call sign then identify your own station

c) Say "CQ" three times then the other station's call sign

d) Wait for the station to call "CQ" then answer it

1 point

a) When that station is not transmitting on amateur frequencies

b) When the station in distress offers no call sign

c) You are never prohibited from helping any station in distress

d) When the station is not another amateur station

12. What is a practical way to avoid harmful interference when calling CQ using Morse code or CW? *

1 point

a) Send the letter "V" 12 times and then listen for a response

b) Keep your CQ to less than 2 minutes in length to avoid interference with contacts already in progress

c) Send "QRL? de" followed by your call sign and listen for a response

d) Call CQ at low power first; if there is no indication of interference then increase power as necessary

13. What does it mean when a CW operator sends "KN" at the end of a transmission? *

1 point
