🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between a reference frequency and a measured frequency • How other equipment might use a highly stable frequency as a baseline • Common uses of precise frequencies in radio and navigation equipment

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option describes something that other devices can compare themselves against, rather than something that just measures or transmits? • Consider which choices talk about accuracy and stability over time, not just the ability to send or read a signal once. • Which option would best serve as the "master clock" for all other frequencies on a vessel or in a radio system?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices talk about a reference versus those that talk about measurement or transmission. • Check if the option requires the frequency to be highly accurate and stable, not just known or commonly used. • Eliminate any choice that suggests varying or random frequencies, since a standard must be consistent.
