With which of the following conditions must beacon stations comply?
The correct answer is A: No more than one beacon station may transmit in the same band from the same station location. A condition that beacon stations must comply with is that no more than one beacon station may transmit in the same band from the same station location. This prevents multiple beacons from interfering with each other and ensures clear beacon identification. For amateur radio operators, this helps maintain order on beacon frequencies. Understanding this helps when planning beacon operations.
Exam Tip
Beacon requirement = only one per band per location. Think 'B'eacon = 'O'ne per 'B'and per location. Prevents interference between beacons. Not about coordination or internet posting - just the one-per-location rule.
Memory Aid
"Beacon requirement = only one per band per location. Think 'B'eacon = 'O'ne per 'B'and. No more than one beacon station may transmit in the same band from the same station location. Prevents interference."
Real-World Application
You operate a beacon station on 20 meters from your station location. You can only have one beacon transmitting on 20 meters from that location. If you want to operate beacons on multiple bands, you can, but only one per band from the same location. This prevents beacon interference and confusion.
Key Concepts
Why Other Options Are Wrong
Option B: Incorrect. Beacon frequencies don't need coordination with the National Beacon Organization - there's no such requirement. Beacons use designated frequencies but don't require coordination.
Option C: Incorrect. Beacon frequencies don't need to be posted on the internet or published - there's no such requirement. Beacons use standard frequencies.
Option D: Incorrect. Since B and C are not requirements, 'all of the above' cannot be correct. Only the one-beacon-per-location rule applies.
