The holder of an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate may operate radio-controlled models:
- A if only pulse modulation is used
- B on all amateur radio bands above 30 MHz
- C if the control transmitter does not exceed 15 kHz of occupied bandwidth
- D on all amateur radio bands below 30 MHz
Correct answer: B — on all amateur radio bands above 30 MHz. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
You may operate radio-controlled models on all amateur radio bands above 30 MHz because the regulations specifically permit this activity on those higher frequencies, provided the equipment meets standard amateur requirements. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
