    The power meter displays absolute power in watts or

    • Relative decibels (dBR)

    • Measured decibels (dBM)

    • Referenced decibels (dBm)

    • Decibels (dB)

    Correct Answer
    A. Referenced decibels (dBm)
    Explanation
    The power meter displays the power in referenced decibels (dBm). Referenced decibels (dBm) is a unit of power measurement that represents the power level relative to 1 milliwatt (mW). It provides a standardized and absolute measurement of power, making it easier to compare power levels across different devices or systems. The power meter may also display power in watts or relative decibels (dBR), but referenced decibels (dBm) is the correct answer as it specifically refers to the power measurement in dBm.

    The TCAS test set does not test the operation of the

    • Mode-T transponder

    • Interrogators

    • Mode-S transponder

    • Transponders

    Correct Answer
    A. Mode-T transponder
    Explanation
    The TCAS test set is not designed to test the operation of the mode-T transponder. This means that the test set cannot be used to check if the mode-T transponder is functioning correctly. The mode-T transponder is a specific type of transponder used in aviation that responds to Mode A and Mode C interrogations. While the TCAS test set can test the operation of interrogators and mode-S transponders, it is not capable of testing mode-T transponders.
