B-008-05: Use of filters: low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-reject

B-008-05-01: What type of filter might be connected to an amateur HF transmitter to cut down on harmonic radiation?

A low pass filter

A key-click filter

A high pass filter

A CW filter



B-008-05-02: Why do modern HF transmitters have a built-in low pass filter in their RF output circuits?

To reduce harmonic radiation

To reduce fundamental radiation

To reduce low frequency interference to other amateurs

To reduce RF energy below a cut-off point



B-008-05-03: What circuit blocks RF energy above and below a certain limit?

A band pass filter

A high pass filter

An input filter

A low pass filter



B-008-05-04: What should be the impedance of a low pass filter as compared to the impedance of the transmission line into which it is inserted?

About the same

Substantially lower

Twice the transmission line impedance

Substantially higher



B-008-05-05: In order to reduce the harmonic output of a high frequency (HF) transmitter, which of the following filters should be installed at the transmitter?

Low pass

Band pass

High pass

Rejection



B-008-05-06: To reduce harmonic output from a transmitter, you would put a ____________ in the transmission line as close to the transmitter as possible.

low pass filter

high pass filter

band reject filter

wave trap



B-008-05-07: To reduce energy from an HF transmitter getting into a television set, you would place a ____________ as close to the TV as possible.

high pass filter

low pass filter

wave trap

band reject filter



B-008-05-08: A band pass filter will:

allow only certain frequencies through

attenuate high frequencies but not low

pass frequencies each side of a band

stop frequencies in a certain band



B-008-05-09: A band reject filter will:

pass frequencies each side of a band

allow only two frequencies through

pass frequencies below 100 MHz

stop frequencies each side of a band



B-008-05-10: A high pass filter would normally be fitted:

at the antenna terminals of the TV receiver

between microphone and speech amplifier

at the Morse key or keying relay in a transmitter

between transmitter output and feed line



B-008-05-11: A low pass filter suitable for a high frequency transmitter would:

attenuate frequencies above 30 MHz

pass audio frequencies above 3 kHz

attenuate frequencies below 30 MHz

pass audio frequencies below 3 kHz
