Answer Notes

The 2-meter amateur band covers the frequency range from 144.0 MHz to 148.0 MHz. Therefore, 146.52 MHz sits perfectly inside this band. This specific frequency is highly recognizable to hams as it is the National Simplex Calling Frequency for 2-meter FM. The distractors represent entirely different bands. The 6-meter band covers 50 to 54 MHz, 20 meters is around 14 MHz, and 70 centimeters spans 420 to 450 MHz. Remembering the 144-148 MHz range is fundamental for any Technician class operator.
