An amateur radio station may be used to communicate with:
- Astations operated under similar authorizations
- Bany stations which are identified for special contests
- CArmed Forces stations during contests and exercises
- Dany station transmitting in amateur radio bands
Correct answer: A — stations operated under similar authorizations. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
An amateur station may only talk to other stations that hold a similar licence, meaning they are also authorized by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada to operate on amateur frequencies. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
