Heated crystal oscillator       for better frequency stability.              Technician       The current entry level of U.S. Amateur Radio license, it allows all       amateur radio privilges above 50 Mhz, plus limited CW privileges on       80, 40 and 15 meters...plus CW, RTTY, and data (PSK31, etc.) privileges       from 28.0 to 28.3 Mhz...and SSB Phone from 28.3 to 28.5 Mhz on 10 meters.       Technician Class licensees also can use the VoIP (Voice Over Internet       Protocol) modes of Echolink (www.echolink.org) and IRLP (www.irlp.net).              Technician Plus       "Technician Plus" licensees were originally Technician Class licensees       who had passed the 5 words per minute Morse Code exam requirement.       However, as of Feb. 23, 2007, the Morse Code exam requirement was removed,       with "Technician Plus" licensees now having the same privileges as       Technician Class licensees. This term is no longer used as an official       class of U.S. amateur radio license. See also "Technician".              Telecommand       A one-way transmission to initiate, modify, or terminate functions of a       device at a distance.               Telecommand station       An amateur station that transmits communications to initiate, modify, or       terminate functions of a space station.               Telemetry       A one-way transmission of measurements at a distance from the measuring       instrument.              Terminal Node Controller              1. A "modem" for amateur radio, which is used for "packet" and "APRS".       Also known as a TNC.              2. A type of antenna connector.              Third-party communications       A message from the control operator (first party) of an amateur station to       another amateur station control operator (second party) on behalf of       another person (third party).              Third party traffic       Where someone who is not currently an amateur radio licensee, may operate,       under the supervision of an amateur radio licensee. The amateur radio       licensee must immediately terminate communications, should a FCC rules       violation occur. Prior amateur radio service licensees whose licenses       have been suspended, revoked, surrendered for cancellation, or are the       subject of a "cease and desist" order may NOT operate as "third party       traffic".               Ticket       Slang for "FCC License".              Time Out Timer       Time limiting function for continued repeater, or other operations.       By FCC Rules, most repeaters will "shut down" after 3 minutes of       continuous transmit, to avoid burning out the components in the       repeater. Continuous usage may also prevent a station with a       legitimate emergency situation from transmitting their distress call.              TNC       See "Terminal Node Controller".              TOT       See Time Out Timer.              Transistor       See "P-N Junction".              TS       Tuning Step. Incremental steps of changing frequency (5 khz, 10 khz, etc.).              TSQL       Tone Squench       Squelch function using sub-audible tones, selective call.              TVI       Television Interference.              TX       Abbreviation for "transmitter" or "transmit"       --- SBBSecho 3.20-Win32        * Origin: The Thunderbolt BBS - Little Rock, Arkansas (1:2320/33)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 120 123 15/0 16/0 18/0 19/10 37 50/109 90/1 105/81 106/201       SEEN-BY: 116/17 18 116 123/0 10 25 130 131 170 180 200 525 755 3001       SEEN-BY: 135/300 142/104 153/7715 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 218/700       SEEN-BY: 220/90 221/1 6 360 222/2 226/18 30 227/114 229/110 112 113       SEEN-BY: 229/206 307 317 426 428 470 664 700 240/1120 1200 5832 250/1       SEEN-BY: 266/512 275/1000 280/5003 282/1038 299/6 301/1 113 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/119 219 319 2119 322/0 757 335/364 341/66 342/200 396/45       SEEN-BY: 423/81 460/58 467/888 633/280 712/848 1321 2320/0 33 105       SEEN-BY: 2320/304 401 3634/0 12 27 56 57 119 4500/1 5001/100 5005/49       SEEN-BY: 5020/715 1042 4441 5030/49 5054/8 5058/104 5064/56 5075/128       SEEN-BY: 5083/1 444 5090/958       PATH: 2320/33 105 154/10 3634/12 5020/1042 301/1 221/6 1 320/219       PATH: 229/426           |
