What are the two signal parameters presented to the user on the waterfall display (spectrogram) of a modern receiver?

  1. A Frequency and phase
  2. B Phase and bandwidth
  3. C Bandwidth and digital mode
  4. D Amplitude and frequency

Correct answer: D — Amplitude and frequency. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

A waterfall display shows how signal strength, or amplitude, changes over time across different frequencies. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
