4/29/2012 ¾ General class control operator frequency privileges ¾ General class control operator frequency privileges The following frequencies are available to a control operator holding a General Class license: (G1A11) 28.020 MHz 28.020 28.350 MHz 28.350 28.550 MHz All of these answers are correct When a General Class licensee is not permitted to use the entire voice portion of a particular band, the upper end or portion of the voice segment is generally available to them. (G1A12) 19 28.550 20 ¾ FCC rules designate Amateur Service as a secondary user on certain bands, as such amateur stations are permitted to use such bands only if there is no harmful interference to primary users. (G1A14) users Primary users have priority use Voice privileges are usually at the top end of the band band.except except for 60 meters which has specific 5 channels of voice. ¾ There are NO amateur bands shared with the Citizens Radio Service. ¾ Move to a clear frequency when operating on 30 meters or 60 meters if a station in the primary service interferes with your contact. (G1A15) Secondary users do not have priority use (G1A13) 21 ¾ 200 feet is the maximum height above ground to which an antenna structure may be erected without requiring notification tifi ti tto th the FAA and d registration i t ti with ith th the FCC FCC, provided it is not at or near a public use airport. (G1B01) 22 ¾ One of the conditions with which beacon stations must comply is that g in the same band there must be no more than one beacon signal from a single location.(g1b02) ¾ Observation of propagation and reception is a purpose of a beacon station t ti as id identified tifi d iin th the FCC R Rules. l (G1B03) Maximum Antenna Height without FCC Approval. 200 Ft. Beacon stations are found at 14.100 MHz, 18.110 MHz, 21.150 MHz, 24.930 MHz, 28.200-28.300 MHz, and on 2 meters below 144.300 MHz. 24 4

s Before amateur stations may provide communications to broadcasters for dissemination to the public, the communications must directly relate to the immediate safety of human life or protection of property and there must be no other means of communication reasonably available before or at the time of the event.(g1b04) Music may be transmitted by an amateur station ONLY when it is an incidental part of a manned spacecraft retransmission (G1B05) Abbreviations or procedural signals in the Amateur Service may be used if they do not obscure the meaning of a message. (G1B07) Remember this from the Tech? When choosing a transmitter frequency in compliance with good amateur practice:(g1b08) Review FCC Part 97 Rules regarding permitted frequencies and emissions. Follow generally accepted band plans agreed to by the Amateur Radio community. Before transmitting, listen to avoid interfering with ongoing communication. An amateur station ti is permitted to transmit secret codes to control a space station. (G1B06) Wasn t this in the Tech license? All of these choices are correct 26 An amateur station may transmit communications in which the licensee or control operator has a pecuniary (monetary) interest only when other amateurs are being notified of the sale of apparatus normally used in an amateur station and such activity is not done on a regular basis (G1B09) Remember this from the Tech? Boy, this is getting easier. The maximum transmitting power an amateur station may use on 10.140 MHz is 200 watts PEP output. (G1C01) 100 watts PEP output is the power limit for beacon stations.(g1b10) The FCC requires an amateur station to be operated in conformance with good engineering and good amateur practice in all respects not specifically covered by the Part 97 rules (G1B11) The FCC determines good engineering and good amateur practice as applied to the operation of an amateur station in all respects not covered by the Part 97 rules (G1B12) 27 CW, RTTY and data 10.140 MHz 28 The maximum transmitting gpower an amateur station may use on the Amateur Radio 12 meter band is 1500 watts PEP output. (G1C02) 2.8 khz is the maximum bandwidth permitted by FCC rules for Amateur Radio stations transmitting on USB frequencies in the 60 meter band. (G1C03) Only Upper Sideband Turn off speech processor to prevent exceeding 2.8 khz The power output limitation on the 14 MHz band is the minimum power necessary to carry out the desired communications. (G1C04) CW, RTTY and data CW, phone and image 29 Technically this applies to all transmissions by an Amateur Radio operator 30 5

The maximum transmitting power a station with a General Class control operator may use on the 28 MHz band (10 Meter Band) is 1500 watts PEP output. (G1C05) General class control operator frequency privileges A General Class license holder is permitted to run up to 1500 watts of Peak Envelope Power on the 1.8 MHz band. (G1C06) CW, RTTY, data, phone, and image 1500 watts on all bands except 60 meters and 30 meters. However, always run the minimum power necessary. 31 s 300 baud is the maximum symbol rate permitted for RTTY or data emission i transmission i on the 20 meter band.(g1c07) 300 baud is the maximum symbol rate permitted for RTTY or data emission transmitted at frequencies below 28 MHz.(G1C08) 56 kilobaud is the maximum symbol rate permitted for RTTY or data emission transmitted on the 1.25 meter and 70 centimeter bands.(g1c09) 1200 baud is the maximum symbol rate permitted for RTTY or data emission transmissions on the 10 meter band.(g1c10) 19.6 kilobaud is the maximum symbol rate permitted for RTTY or data emission i transmissions i on the 2 meter band.(g1c11) s The temporary way to identify when transmitting using phone on General Class frequencies if you have a CSCE for the required elements but your upgrade from Technician has not appeared in the FCC database is to give your call sign followed by slant AG. (G1D01) An accredited VE holding a General Class operator license may only administer the Technician examination. (G1D02) If you are a Technician Class operator and have a CSCE for General Class privileges you may operate on any General or Technician Class band segment. (G1D03) A requirement for administering a Technician Class operator examination is that at least three VEC accredited General Class or higher VEs must be present. (G1D04) An FCC General Class or higher license and VEC accreditation is sufficient for you to be an administering VE for a Technician Class operator license examination. (G1D05) You must add the special identifier ifi "AG" after your call sign if you are a Technician Class licensee and have a CSCE for General Class operator privileges, but the FCC has not yet posted your upgrade on its web site whenever you operate using General Class frequency privileges. (G1D06) Volunteer Examiners are accredited by a Volunteer Examiner Coordinator. (G1D07) 35 For a non U.S. citizen to be an accredited Volunteer Examiner the person must hold a U.S. amateur radio license of General class or above. Volunteer Examiners are accredited by a Volunteer Examiner Coordinator. You may participate as a VE in administering an amateur radio license examination after you have been granted a General class license and have received your VEC accreditation. Allowed License Exams by VE License Class VE License Class Allowed Examinations General Element 2 (Technician) Advanced Amateur Extra Element 3 (General) Element 2 (Technician) i Element 4 (Amateur Extra) Element 3 (General) Element 2 (Technician) i 36 6

s For a non U.S. citizen to be an accredited Volunteer Examiner, the person must hold a U.S. Amateur Radio license of General Class or above. (G1D08) A Certificate of Successful Completion of Examination (CSCE) is valid for exam element credit for a period of 365 days. (G1D09) 37 s 18yearsis the minimum age that one must be to qualify as an accredited Volunteer Examiner. (G1D10) If a third party s amateur license had ever been revoked, it would disqualify that t third party from participating in stating a message over an amateur station. (G1E01) There is no age limit to become an amateur radio operator. A 10 meter repeater may retransmit a 2 meter signal lfrom a Technician, i ONLY if there is an active duty control operator holding a General Class or higher. h (G1E02) s An Amateur Radio operator holding an FCC issued General Class license is authorized to be a control operator in ITU Region 2 operating in the 7.175 to 7.300 MHz band. (G1E03) 39 s Conditions that require an Amateur Radio station to take specific steps to avoid harmful interference to other users or facilities (G1E04) When operating within one mile of an FCC Monitoring Station When using a band where the Amateur Service is secondary When a station is transmitting spread spectrum emissions All of these choices are correct Only messages relating to Amateur Radio or remarks of a personal character, or messages relating to emergencies or disaster relief may be transmitted by an amateur station for a third party in another country. (G1E05) In the event of interference between a coordinated repeater and an uncoordinated repeater, the licensee of the non coordinated repeater has primary responsibility to resolve the interference. (G1E06) s Third party traffic is prohibited with every foreign country, unless there is a third party agreement in effect with that country, except for messages directly involving emergencies or disaster relief communications. (G1E07) For a non licensed person to communicate with a foreign Amateur Radio station from a US amateur station at which a licensed control operator is present, the foreign amateur station must be in country with which the United States has a third party agreement. (G1E08) Wow!!! More from the Tech license, not so tough is it? You must use English language when identifying your station if you are using a language g other than English in making a contact t using phone emission. (G1E09) 7
