Question 220 Deck Safety

70% to pass

The date and time kept in the radiotelephone log shall commence at _______________.

A midnight
B any convenient time
C noon
D beginning of the watch
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) midnight. The regulation that specifies this is Section 26.05 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules, which states that the date and time entries in the radiotelephone log must commence at midnight and continue for the next 24-hour period. The other options are incorrect because B) any convenient time is not specified in the regulations, C) noon would only cover half a day, and D) the beginning of the watch does not necessarily align with the full 24-hour period required for the log entries.
