Question: 1 / 400

What indicator is required to be used by U.S.-licensed operators when operating a station via remote control where the transmitter is located in the U.S.?

/ followed by the USPS two letter abbreviation for the state in which the remote station is located

/R# where # is the district of the remote station

The ARRL section of the remote station

No additional indicator is required

When a U.S.-licensed operator is transmitting via remote control with the transmitter located within the United States, there is no additional identifier needed for the station call sign. This means that the operator can use their existing call sign without any special suffixes or indicators. This approach simplifies the operation of remote stations and aligns with the regulations governing remote control operation in amateur radio.

Options that suggest the use of additional indicators, such as the state's postal abbreviation or the ARRL section, are unnecessary because the regulations stipulate that the existing call sign is sufficient to identify the station being operated remotely within the U.S. The absence of any requirement for additional markings or designations emphasizes the focus on maintaining operator identity without adding unnecessary complexity when operating remotely.
