What parameter describes the interaction of a load and transmission line?

  1. A Characteristic impedance
  2. B Reflection coefficient
  3. C Velocity factor
  4. D Dielectric constant
E9E08

What is a use for a Wilkinson divider?

  1. A To divide the operating frequency of a transmitter signal so it can be used on a lower frequency band
  2. B To feed high-impedance antennas from a low-impedance source
  3. C To divide power equally between two 50-ohm loads while maintaining 50-ohm input impedance
  4. D To divide the frequency of the input to a counter to increase its frequency range
E9E09

Which of the following is used to shunt feed a grounded tower at its base?

  1. A Double-bazooka match
  2. B Beta or hairpin match
  3. C Gamma match
  4. D All these choices are correct
E9E11

What is the purpose of using multiple driven elements connected through phasing lines?

  1. A To control the antenna's radiation pattern
  2. B To prevent harmonic radiation from the transmitter
  3. C To allow single-band antennas to operate on other bands
  4. D To create a low-angle radiation pattern
