Why are simplex channels designated in the VHF/UHF band plans?
So stations within range of each other can communicate without tying up a repeater✓Ճիշտ պատասխան
For contest operation
For working DX only
So stations with simple transmitters can access the repeater without automated offset
Բացատրություն
When two stations can hear each other directly there is no reason to occupy a repeater, and band plans reserve simplex channels for exactly that. It is about freeing shared infrastructure, not about contests or DX.
