Subelement T1, COMMISSION’S RULES· Group T1A · 47 CFR §97.3(a)(22)

T1A08 · §97.3(a)(22)

Who recommends transmit/receive channels for repeater and auxiliary stations?

  • A.A Frequency Spectrum Manager appointed by the FCC
  • B.A Volunteer Frequency Coordinator recognized by local amateurs (correct answer)
  • C.An FCC Regional Field Office
  • D.The International Telecommunication Union

WhyA Volunteer Frequency Coordinator recognized by local amateurs recommends transmit/receive channels for repeater and auxiliary stations. §97.3(a)(22) defines a frequency coordinator as an entity recognized by local amateurs that recommends repeater and auxiliary station frequencies to avoid interference between nearby systems. That's a volunteer body run by hams themselves, not a government office, so B is correct. A, C, and D all substitute a government or international body for what the rule assigns to local amateur volunteers.
