What is the signal transmitted in H3E mode?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — A full carrier and the upper sideband.
H3E is a form of amplitude modulation where the carrier is transmitted at full power, but only the upper sideband is utilized for the information signal. While less efficient than suppressed carrier modes, it allows for simpler receiver designs that can detect the carrier for automatic gain control.
