In a single-sideband transmitter, which stage allows you to adjust the final transmit frequency?

  1. A Sideband filter
  2. B Balanced modulator
  3. C Variable frequency oscillator
  4. D Antenna tuner

Correct answer: C — Variable frequency oscillator. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

The Variable frequency oscillator sets the base radio wave that gets shifted to your chosen channel, so changing its speed directly moves your final transmit frequency. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
