🔍 Key Concepts

• Weather facsimile (WEFAX) or radiofax charts and how they are received on board • Which settings on a facsimile receiver control how the image size and aspect ratio match the transmitted chart • What parameter on a rotating-drum or scanner-type receiver affects how fast a chart is completed

💭 Think About

• Think about what must be matched between the shore station and the ship so that the weather chart is not stretched, squashed, or slanted. • Ask yourself which pair of parameters sounds like they would be standardized and published for each transmitting station in weather-fax schedules. • Consider which options refer to basic mechanical/electronic timing and line-spacing of the picture rather than more advanced or obscure signal-processing details.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice mentions a parameter that directly relates to picture scanning rate or drum speed. • Identify which choice mentions a parameter that controls how closely the transmitted and received picture lines line up (picture resolution/line spacing). • Eliminate any options that sound like complex signal-processing jargon not usually adjusted by the shipboard operator for routine weather-fax reception.
