When operating a US station by remote control from outside the country, what license is required of the control operator?
A US operator/primary station license✓Correct answer
Only an appropriate US operator/primary license and a special remote station permit from the FCC
Only a license from the foreign country, as long as the call sign includes identification of portable operation in the US
A license from the foreign country and a special remote station permit from the FCC
Explanation
The transmitter is in the United States, so it is an FCC-regulated station and Part 97 applies to it regardless of where the control operator is sitting. The control operator therefore needs a US license, and the rules create no separate remote station permit to go with it.
