G4D01:

What is the purpose of a speech processor as used in a modern transceiver?

1. Increase the intelligibility of transmitted phone signals during poor conditions
2. Increase transmitter bass response for more natural-sounding SSB signals
3. Prevent distortion of voice signals
4. Decrease high-frequency voice output to prevent out-of-band operation

G4D02:

Which of the following describes how a speech processor affects a transmitted single sideband phone signal?

1. It increases peak power
2. It increases average power
3. It reduces harmonic distortion
4. It reduces intermodulation distortion

G4D03:

Which of the following can be the result of an incorrectly adjusted speech processor?

1. Distorted speech
2. Splatter
3. Excessive background pickup
4. All these choices are correct

G4D04:

What does an S meter measure?

1. Conductance
2. Impedance
3. Received signal strength
4. Transmitter power output

G4D05:

How does a signal that reads 20 dB over S9 compare to one that reads S9 on a receiver, assuming a properly calibrated S meter?

1. It is 10 times less powerful
2. It is 20 times less powerful
3. It is 20 times more powerful
4. It is 100 times more powerful

G4D06:

Where is an S meter found?

1. In a receiver
2. In an SWR bridge
3. In a transmitter
4. In a conductance bridge

G4D07:

How much must the power output of a transmitter be raised to change the S meter reading on a distant receiver from S8 to S9?

1. Approximately 1.5 times
2. Approximately 2 times
3. Approximately 4 times
4. Approximately 8 times

2. 14.347 to 14.350 MHz
3. 14.344 to 14.347 MHz
4. 14.3455 to 14.3485 MHz

G4D10:
