70% to pass

When using the International Code of Signals to communicate, the end of a radiotelephone transmission is indicated by the signal .

A CQ
B WA
C AR
D YZ
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) AR. The International Code of Signals is a standardized set of signals used to communicate at sea, and the signal "AR" is used to indicate the end of a radiotelephone transmission. This is in accordance with the regulations and practices established for using the International Code of Signals. The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the proper signal to indicate the end of a transmission. CQ is used to initiate a call, WA is not a recognized signal, and YZ does not have a specific meaning in the International Code of Signals for this purpose.
