G8C05:

In the PACTOR protocol, what is meant by a NAK response to a transmitted packet?

1. The receiver is requesting the packet be retransmitted
2. The receiver is reporting the packet was received without error
3. The receiver is busy decoding the packet
4. The entire file has been received correctly

G8C06:

What action results from a failure to exchange information due to excessive transmission attempts when using PACTOR or WINMOR?

1. The checksum overflows
2. The connection is dropped
3. Packets will be routed incorrectly
4. Encoding reverts to the default character set

G8C07:

How does the receiving station respond to an ARQ data mode packet containing errors?

1. It terminates the contact
2. It requests the packet be retransmitted
3. It sends the packet back to the transmitting station
4. It requests a change in transmitting protocol

G8C08:

Which of the following statements is true about PSK31?

1. Upper case letters are sent with more power
2. Upper case letters use longer Varicode bit sequences and thus slow down transmission
3. Error correction is used to ensure accurate message reception
4. Higher power is needed as compared to RTTY for similar error rates

G8C09:

What does the number 31 represent in "PSK31"?

1. The approximate transmitted symbol rate

G8C10:

How does forward error correction (FEC) allow the receiver to correct errors in received data packets?

1. By controlling transmitter output power for optimum signal strength
2. By using the Varicode character set
3. By transmitting redundant information with the data
4. By using a parity bit with each character
