G2A05:

Which mode of voice communication is most commonly used on the HF amateur bands?

  1. Frequency modulation
  2. Double sideband
  3. Single sideband
  4. Phase modulation

G2A06:

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

  1. Very high fidelity voice modulation
  2. Less subject to interference from atmospheric static crashes
  3. Ease of tuning on receive and immunity to impulse noise
  4. Less bandwidth used and greater power efficiency

G2A07:

Which of the following statements is true of the single sideband voice mode?

  1. Only one sideband and the carrier are transmitted; the other sideband is suppressed
  2. Only one sideband is transmitted; the other sideband and carrier are suppressed
  3. SSB is the only voice mode that is authorized on the 20-meter, 15-meter, and 10-meter amateur bands
  4. SSB is the only voice mode that is authorized on the 160-meter, 75-meter, and 40-meter amateur bands

G2A08:

What is the recommended way to break in to a phone contact?

  1. Say "QRZ" several times, followed by your call sign
  2. Say your call sign once
  3. Say "Breaker Breaker"
  4. Say "CQ" followed by the call sign of either station

G2A09:

Why do most amateur stations use lower sideband on the 160-meter, 75-meter, and 40-meter bands?

  1. Lower sideband is more efficient than upper sideband at these frequencies
  2. Lower sideband is the only sideband legal on these frequency bands
  3. Because it is fully compatible with an AM detector
  4. It is good amateur practice

G2A10:

Which of the following statements is true of voice VOX operation versus PTT operation?

  1. The received signal is more natural sounding
  2. It allows "hands free" operation
  3. It occupies less bandwidth
  4. It provides more power output

G2A11:

Generally, who should respond to a station in the contiguous 48 states who calls "CQ DX"?

  1. Any caller is welcome to respond
  2. Only stations in Germany
  3. Any stations outside the lower 48 states
  4. Only contest stations

G2A12:

What control is typically adjusted for proper ALC setting on an amateur single sideband transceiver?

  1. The RF clipping level
  2. Transmit audio or microphone gain
  3. Antenna inductance or capacitance
  4. Attenuator level
