B-002-05: Morse code (CW) operating procedures, procedural signs
B-002-05-01:
What is the correct way to call "CQ" when using Morse code?
Send the letters "CQ" three times, followed by "DE", followed by your call sign sent three times
Send the letters "CQ" three times, followed by "DE", followed by your call sign sent once
Send the letters "CQ" ten times, followed by "DE", followed by your call sign sent once
Send the letters "CQ" over and over
B-002-05-02:
How should you answer a Morse code "CQ" call?
Send the other station's call sign twice, followed by "DE", followed by your call sign twice
Send your call sign four times
Send the other station's call sign once, followed by "DE", followed by your call sign four times
Send your call sign followed by your name, station location and a signal report
B-002-05-03:
At what speed should a Morse code CQ call be transmitted?
At any speed which you can reliably receive
At any speed below 5 WPM
At the highest speed your keyer will operate
At the highest speed at which you can control the keyer
B-002-05-04:
What is the meaning of the procedural signal "CQ"?
Calling any station
Call on the quarter hour
An antenna is being tested
Only the station "CQ" should answer
B-002-05-05:
What is the meaning of the procedural signal "DE"?
From
Received all correctly
Calling any station
Directional Emissions
B-002-05-06:
What is the meaning of the procedural signal "K"?
Any station transmit
End of message
Called station only transmit
All received correctly
B-002-05-07:
What is meant by the term "DX"?
Distant station
Calling any station
Go ahead
Best regards
B-002-05-08:
What is the meaning of the term "73"?
Best regards
Long distance
Love and kisses
Go ahead
B-002-05-09:
Which of the following describes full break-in telegraphy?
Incoming signals are received between transmitted Morse dots
Automatic keyers are used to send Morse code instead of hand keys
An operator must activate a manual send/receive switch before and after every transmission
Breaking stations send the Morse code prosign "BK"
B-002-05-10:
When selecting a CW transmitting frequency, what minimum frequency separation from a contact in progress should you allow to minimize interference?
150 to 500 Hz
5 to 50 Hz
1 to 3 kHz
3 to 6 kHz
B-002-05-11:
Good Morse telegraphy operators:
listen to the frequency to make sure that it is not in use before transmitting
always give stations a good readability report
save time by leaving out spaces between words
tune the transmitter using the operating antenna
