Amateur radio stations may communicate:

  1. A with non-amateur radio stations
  2. B with any station involved in a real or simulated emergency
  3. C only with other amateur radio stations
  4. D with anyone who uses international Morse code

Correct answer: C — only with other amateur radio stations. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

Amateur radio is a private service for licensed operators, meaning your station may only talk to other licensed amateur stations. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
