A transmitter has a power output of 125 watts. There is a loss of 0.8 dB in the transmission line, 0.2 dB in the antenna tuner, and a gain of 10 dBd in the antenna. The Effective Radiated Power (ERP) is:

  1. A134
  2. B1000
  3. C1250
  4. D1125

Correct answer: B — 1000. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

Start by combining the losses: 0.8 dB plus 0.2 dB equals 1.0 dB lost in the feedline and tuner. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
