On which HF bands does a Technician class operator have phone privileges?
- A.None
- B.10-meter band only (correct answer)
- C.80-meter, 40-meter, 15-meter, and 10-meter bands
- D.30-meter band only
WhyA Technician class operator has phone privileges on the 10-meter band only among the HF bands. §97.301(e) and §97.305 give Technicians phone privileges on only one HF band: the 28.300-28.500 MHz segment of 10 meters, answer B. The 80-, 40-, and 15-meter bands in choice C are General-and-above privileges, and "none" in A is wrong since the 10-meter phone segment does exist for Technicians.
