Question
Which of the following are required for remote control operation?
Answer Options
- A) The control operator must be at the control point
- B) A control operator is required at all times
- C) The control operator must indirectly manipulate the controls
- D) All these choices are correct
Correct Answer: D
Explanation
All of the conditions listed are requirements for remote control. Remote control is operating a station when the control operator is not physically at the radio transmitter (T1E05).
Therefore, the operator must be at the designated control point and, since they are distant from the radio, they are by definition manipulating the controls indirectly (via a remote link). Most importantly, like all transmissions, a control operator is required at all times to instantly terminate transmissions if a problem occurs or if instructed to do so by the FCC.
