What is the required transmit frequency of a CW signal for channelized 60 meter operation?
At the lowest frequency of the channel
At the center frequency of the channel✓Correct answer
At the highest frequency of the channel
On any frequency where the signal’s sidebands are within the channel
Explanation
On the four discrete 60-meter channels the rules set the CW carrier to the channel center frequency; only phone, data and RTTY carriers may be offset 1.5 kHz below center. Placing a CW carrier at a channel edge, or anywhere its sidebands happen to fit, is not authorized.
