T8A09 @N8B01

How does the frequency of a harmonic compare to the desired

transmitting frequency?

A.  It is slightly more than the desired frequency

B.  It is slightly less than the desired frequency

C.  It is exactly two, or three, or more times the desired frequency

D.  It is much less than the desired frequency

 

T8A10 @N8B15

What should you check if you change your transceiver's microphone from

a mobile type to a base station type?

A.  Check the CTCSS levels on the oscilloscope

B.  Make an on-the-air radio check to ensure the quality of your

signal

T8A11 @N8B16

Why is good station grounding needed when connecting your computer to

your transceiver to receive high-frequency data signals?

A.  Good grounding raises the receiver's noise floor
