Which agency regulates and enforces the rules for the Amateur Radio Service in the United States?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: C. The FCC
The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) writes and enforces the rules for amateur radio in the US, as FCC rule 97.1 shows. The ARRL is a national ham radio club, not a government agency, and Homeland Security does not regulate ham radio.
Tip: Part 97 is an FCC rule, so the FCC is in charge.
