What is the advantage of having a choice of receiver filter bandwidths in a multimode transceiver?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. Permits noise or interference reduction by selecting a bandwidth matching the mode
Different modes need different bandwidths, such as narrow for CW and wider for SSB. Choosing a filter bandwidth matching the mode permits noise or interference reduction. A filter wider than needed lets in extra noise and nearby signals.
Tip: Filter as narrow as the mode allows.
