What effect does fog or rain have on 10-meter and 6-meter band signals?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. Little effect
Fog and rain have little effect on 10-meter and 6-meter signals, because their wavelengths are long compared with raindrops. Weather absorption mainly matters at microwave frequencies.
Tip: Rain matters at microwaves, not at 6 or 10 meters.
