| T1A02 Which agency regulates and enforces the rules for the Amatuer Radio Service in the United States? | The FCC. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) makes and enforces all Amateur Radio rules in the United States. [97.1] |
| T1A01 Which of the following is a purpose of the Amateur Radio Service as stated in the FCC rules and regulations? | Advancing skills in the technical and communication phase of the radio art. The Amateur Rules and Regulations very specifically state the basis and purpose of Amateur Radio. One of the important principles is that Amateur Radio never competes with commercial radio interests. Part 97.1 of the FCC rules addresses the distinction between Amateur and Commercial radio. As useful and practical as all of the above may seem, only one of the functions listed is compatible with the long-standing purposes of Amateur Radio. "Advancing skills in the technical and communications phases of the radio art" is one purpose clearly spelled out in the FCC rules. [97.1] |
| T1A12 Which of the following is a permissible use of the Amateur Radio Service? | Allowing a person to conduct radio experiments and to communicate with other licensed hams around the world. Amateur Radio is never to compete with commercial radio services or other entities; amateur radio activities must be without pecuniary interests. Of the four answers, only the last one, "allowing a person to conduct radio experiments and to communicate with other licensed hams around the world" qualifies as a legitimate Amateur Radio activity. |
| T1A05 Which of the following is a purpose of the Amateur Radio Service rules and regulations as defined by the FCC? | Enhancing international goodwill. FCC Part 97.1 explicitly defines the purpose and provisions of Amateur Radio.While many radio amateurs also participate in military and commercial radio. While many radio amateurs also participate in military and commercial radio communications, these do not fall into the definition of Amateur Radio. Clause (e) directly specifies "enhancing international goodwill" as one of the reasons we exist. And you don't even need to be an official diplomat to do this! This is a great reason to investigate the international communications capabilities on HF. [97.1(e)] |
| T1C13 For which licenses classes are new licenses currently available from the FCC? | Technician, General, Amateur Extra. While privileges from beloved but no-longer-issued classes of Amateur Radio licenses have been grandfathered into current license classes, no new Advanced or Novice Class license are being issued. Today, the FCC issues only three ham licenses - Technician, General, and Amateur Extra. Incidentally, many new Technicians are unaware of the value of the old Novice privileges they "inherited" from the old system. These old Novice privileges allow worldwide H.F. communications on four valuable shortwave bands. [97.9 (a), 97.17 (a)] |
| T1C10 How soon after passing the examination for your first amateur radio license may you operate a transmitter on an amateur service frequency? | As soon as your operator/station license grant appears in the FCC's license database. Good news! You will not need to wait very long to begin operating with your first Amateur Radio license. As soon as you see your FCC license grant on the Internet, or make a phone call to someone who can read your new call sign from the FCC database, you are on the air! The paper copy of your license will come in the mail in about three to four weeks. If your Volunteer Examination Team and Coordinator file electronically, you should see your license grant within 48 hours of electronic submission. [97.5(a)] |
| T1C08 What is the normal term for an FCC-issued primary station/operator amateur radio license grant? | Ten years. Amateur station licenses are granted for a term of 10 years. You will need to renew your license at that time, and renewing will probably be done through an on-line ULS application to the FCC. There is no exam required to renew a valid ham radio license. [97.25] |
| T1C09 What is the grace period following the expiration of an amateur license within which the license may be renewed? | Two years. You are not allowed to operate during the 2-year grace period; however, you keep your privileges for 2 years. After that, they are lost for good. So is your call sign. Don't forget to renew! [97.21(a)(b)] |
| T1C11 If your license has expired and is still within the allowable grace period, may you continue to operate a transmitter on amateur service frequencies? | No, transmitting is not allowed until the FCC license database shows that the license has been renewed. How do active licensed amateur radio operators let their license expire? They move and don't inform the FCC of their new mailing address. This could result in the cancellation of the license if mail is returned to the FCC. The FCC has the option of canceling your license if any mail to you is returned. You would never know this cancellation happened unless someone looks up your call sign, sees that it is expired, and tells you. If your call sign expires at the end of 10 years, VEC groups may send you a reminder to renew, but if your address with the FCC is incorrect, you'll never receive the notice. Regardless of how your license expires, you are not permitted to transmit until the FCC license database shows that your license has been renewed. No transmitting during the 2-year grace period. [97.21 (b)] |
| T1A10 What is the FCC Part 97 definition of an amateur station? | A station in the Amateur Radio Service consisting of the apparatus necessary for carrying on radio communications. Your ham station will consist of a radio transmitting device that will be used for amateur communications. This station can go anywhere that you go. It might be a mobile, base, or handheld set. You are allowed to choose any authorized frequency on any authorized band on which you have Technician Class operating privileges. You can change the type of radio equipment "apparatus" at any time. [97.3(a)(5)] |
