G2C-2011: CW operating procedures and procedural signals, Q signals and common abbreviations; full break in
G2C01-2011:
Which of the following describes full break-in telegraphy (QSK)?
Transmitting stations can receive between code characters and elements
Breaking stations send the Morse code prosign BK
Automatic keyers are used to send Morse code instead of hand keys
An operator must activate a manual send/receive switch before and after every transmission
G2C02-2011:
What should you do if a CW station sends "QRS"?
Send slower
Change frequency
Increase your power
Repeat everything twice
G2C03-2011:
What does it mean when a CW operator sends "KN" at the end of a transmission?
Listening only for a specific station or stations
Listening for novice stations
Operating full break-in
Closing station now
G2C04-2011:
What does it mean when a CW operator sends "CL" at the end of a transmission?
Closing station
Keep frequency clear
Operating full break-in
Listening only for a specific station or stations
G2C05-2011:
What is the best speed to use answering a CQ in Morse Code?
The speed at which the CQ was sent
The fastest speed at which you are comfortable copying
A slow speed until contact is established
5 wpm, as all operators licensed to operate CW can copy this speed
G2C06-2011:
What does the term “zero beat” mean in CW operation?
Matching your transmit frequency to the frequency of a received signal.
Matching the speed of the transmitting station
Operating split to avoid interference on frequency
Sending without error
G2C07-2011:
When sending CW, what does a “C” mean when added to the RST report?
Chirpy or unstable signal
Report was read from S meter reading rather than estimated
100 percent copy
Key clicks
G2C08-2011:
What prosign is sent to indicate the end of a formal message when using CW?
AR
SK
BK
KN
G2C09-2011:
What does the Q signal "QSL" mean?
I acknowledge receipt
Send slower
We have already confirmed by card
We have worked before
G2C10-2011:
What does the Q signal "QRQ" mean?
Send faster
Slow down
Zero beat my signal
Quitting operation
G2C11-2011:
What does the Q signal “QRV” mean?
I am ready to receive messages
You are sending too fast
There is interference on the frequency
I am quitting for the day
