Question
What method of call sign identification is required for a station transmitting phone signals?
Answer Options
- A) Send the call sign followed by the indicator RPT
- B) Send the call sign using a CW or phone emission
- C) Send the call sign followed by the indicator R
- D) Send the call sign using only a phone emission
Correct Answer: B
Explanation
When identifying a station using a phone (voice) signal, the FCC allows for flexibility. You may send your call sign using either a phone emission (voice) or using CW (Morse code).
This flexibility is useful because many voice radios have a built-in feature that automatically transmits the required identification every ten minutes using a burst of Morse code, making it simple to meet the rule (T1F03) without disrupting the voice conversation.
