Amateur station equipment
Type
A
14.347 MHz to 14.647 MHz
B
14.347 MHz to 14.350 MHz
C
14.344 MHz to 14.347 MHz
D
14.3455 MHz to 14.3485 MHz
Answer Notes
Upper Sideband (USB) indicates that the voice information and resulting radio frequencies extend above the suppressed carrier frequency.
The radio's displayed carrier frequency is 14.347 MHz. Since the signal occupies a bandwidth of 3 kHz (or 0.003 MHz), you must add this value to the carrier frequency to find the upper limit of the transmission.
Adding 0.003 MHz to 14.347 MHz gives an upper boundary of 14.350 MHz. Therefore, the entire signal occupies the frequency range from 14.347 MHz up to 14.350 MHz.
