Question

Which of the following describes a common method for transferring settings, operating frequencies, or memory channels between transceivers equipped for cloning?

Answer Options

  • A) The radios are directly wired together using a cable and then share settings via a special mode
  • B) A portable storage device is loaded with data using special software, and then connected to the radio
  • C) Radios linked to the internet use a common website to sync themselves
  • D) All these choices are correct

Correct Answer: A


Explanation

The cloning function is a manufacturer-specific feature that allows one radio to instantly copy all settings, operating frequencies, and memory channels from another radio of the exact same model. The most common and reliable method used for this transfer is physical.

The description that fits is that the radios are directly wired together using a cable and then share settings via a special mode activated during power-up or via a menu command. This method ensures that two or more radios are configured identically, which is often necessary when setting up radios for a public service event.
