SS0002 Practice Exercise 5 Answer Key And Feedback
Single-Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS)and Improved High Frequency Radio (IHFR) Operation
1. |
Using your SINCGARS equipment, how many different FH nets can you communicate in without having to reload your radio set?
|
C. Six
Both the ICOM and non-ICOM versions of the SINCGARS transmitter are capable of holding six frequency hopsets for use in the radio. This would allow you to talk in six different FH nets using a different hopset in each net.

2. |
You are sending a unit into the field to test a new ICOM radio set. What is the maximum number of frequency hopsets they can carry using only the radio and one MX-18290 device?
|
B. 19
The SINCGARS radio can carry 6 hopsets loaded. The MX-18290 can carry 13 hopsets. If you carried both pieces of equipment, you could carry up to 19 different hopsets. An important factor to remember is that once you load a hopset from the MX-18290 into the SINCGARS radio, you would lose the ability to use the hopset that had been previously stored in that position.
