Explanation / Answer

1.The range of MF frequency is 300kHZ to 3 MHz.

Hence, the upper limit is 3 MHz, Option C.

2. To recover original signal, intelligence is removed at the receiver and the process is demodulation.

Correct option C.

3. Option B , transit time noise

4. The spectrum in the USA occupies in the range of 54 MHz to 60 MHz.

The bandwidth is 60 MHz-54 MHz=6 MHz
