How can you avoid harmful interference on an apparently clear frequency before calling CQ on CW or phone?
|
||
- A. Send “QRL?” on CW, followed by your call sign; or, if using phone, ask if the frequency is in use, followed by your call sign

||
- C. Send the letter “V” in Morse code several times and listen for a response, or say “test” several times and listen for a response
|
||
- D. Send “QSY” on CW or if using phone, announce “the frequency is in use,” then give your call sign and listen for a response
