T5B: Operating controls
T5B01:
What may happen if a transmitter is operated with the microphone gain set too high?
It may cause the signal to become distorted and unreadable
The output power will be too high
The frequency will vary
The SWR will increase
T5B02:
What kind of information may a VHF/UHF transceiver be capable of storing in memory?
All of these answers are correct
Transmit and receive operating frequency
CTCSS tone frequency
Transmit power level
T5B03:
What is one way to select a frequency on which to operate?
Use the keypad or VFO knob to enter the correct frequency
Turn on the CTCSS encoder
Adjust the power supply ripple frequency
All of these answers are correct
T5B04:
What is the purpose of the squelch control on a transceiver?
It is used to quiet noise when no signal is being received
It is used to set the highest level of volume desired
It is used to set the transmitter power level
It is used to adjust the antenna polarization
T5B05:
What is a way to enable quick access to a favorite frequency on your transceiver?
Store the frequency in a memory channel
Enable the CTCSS tones
Disable the CTCSS tones
Use the scan mode to select the desired frequency
T5B06:
What might you do to improve the situation if the station you are listening to is hard to copy because of ignition noise interference?
Turn on the noise blanker
Increase your transmitter power
Decrease the squelch setting
Use the RIT control
T5B07:
What is the purpose of the buttons labeled "up" and "down" on many microphones?
To allow easy frequency or memory selection
To raise or lower the internal antenna
To set the battery charge rate
To upload or download messages
T5B08:
What is the purpose of the "shift" control found on many VHF/UHF transceivers?
Adjust the offset between transmit and receive frequency
Adjust transmitter power level
Change bands
Change modes
T5B09:
What does RIT mean?
Receiver Incremental Tuning
Receiver Input Tone
Rectifier Inverter Test
Remote Input Transmitter
T5B10:
What is the purpose of the "step" menu function found on many transceivers?
It sets the tuning rate when changing frequencies
It adjusts the transmitter power output level
It adjusts the modulation level
It sets the earphone volume
T5B11:
What is the purpose of the "function" or "F" key found on many transceivers?
It selects an alternate action for some control buttons
It turns the power on and off
It selects the autopatch access code
It controls access to the memory scrambler
