🔍 Key Concepts

• Variometer: an inductive tuning device that changes inductance instead of capacitance • Physical size of capacitors vs inductors at medium frequencies (MF band) • Why mechanical practicality and compactness matter in transmitter tuning components

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to the physical size of a variable capacitor when you need to tune relatively low frequencies like the MF band. Does it get larger or smaller? • How does a variometer change inductance without using large air gaps or big plate areas like capacitors? Would that make the unit physically bigger or smaller? • Look at which options contradict basic radio theory (for example, whether variometers actually exist) and which ones could both logically be true at the same time.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm for yourself that variometers are real devices used in RF tuning, especially at lower frequencies. • Consider whether MF transmitters need large reactive components (L or C) and which component type tends to become very bulky at those frequencies. • Before picking D (A & C), check if both statements can be simultaneously true and consistent with how MF transmitter components are physically built.
