Technician exam question T1F07
Subelement T1, COMMISSION’S RULES· Group T1F · 47 CFR §97.115(a)(2)
Which of the following restrictions apply when a non-licensed person speaks to a foreign amateur radio station via a station under the control of an FCC-licensed amateur radio operator?
- A.The person must be a U.S. citizen
- B.The foreign station must be in a country with which the U.S. has a third-party agreement (correct answer)
- C.The licensed control operator must do the station identification
- D.All these choices are correct
WhyA non-licensed person may speak to a foreign amateur radio station only when that foreign station is in a country with which the U.S. has a third-party agreement. §97.115(a)(2) allows an unlicensed person to speak over an amateur station to a foreign station only when that foreign station is in a country with which the U.S. has a third-party traffic agreement, since both countries have to consent to letting non-licensees participate this way, answer B. A's citizenship requirement isn't part of the rule, C wrongly requires the control operator to personally handle identification (the control operator remains responsible, but doesn't have to speak the ID personally in every case), and D depends on all three being correct.
