What is the frequency limit for Technician class license operators when operating in the HF bands?

The frequency limit for Technician class license operators when operating in the HF bands is indeed up to 30 MHz. This designation reflects the regulations established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which permit Technician licensees to operate in certain HF segments of the radio spectrum. Specifically, Technicians are allowed to use frequencies from 3.5 MHz to 30 MHz, which encompasses portions of the 80, 40, 20, 15, and 10 meter bands.

The choice indicating "only above 30 MHz" is incorrect because it refers to VHF/UHF bands rather than HF bands, which is where Technician operators can transmit. The choice suggesting "up to 10 MHz" is also not accurate, as it limits the frequency range too narrowly and does not take into account the full HF range permitted. The option stating "up to 200 MHz" exceeds the HF band and includes VHF, which is outside the scope of HF operation for Technician licensees.

Understanding these frequency limits is crucial for Technician operators to comply with regulations and to effectively use their amateur radio privileges in designated bands.
