Technician exam question T2C07
Subelement T2, OPERATING PROCEDURES· Group T2C
Which of the following is standard practice when you participate in a net?
- A.When first responding to the net control station, transmit your call sign, name, and address as in the FCC database
- B.Record the time of each of your transmissions
- C.Unless you are reporting an emergency, transmit only when directed by the net control station (correct answer)
- D.All these choices are correct
WhyStandard net practice, unless you're reporting an emergency, is to transmit only when directed by the net control station. Good net discipline means staying off the air except when net control directs you to transmit, unless you have an actual emergency that can't wait, so the net stays orderly and net control can manage who talks when, answer C. Announcing your name and street address on first check-in (A) isn't standard net procedure, and while some operators do log their transmission times (B) it's not itself the defining net discipline this question is testing, so D, which depends on all three, is also wrong.
