What term refers to the federal agency that regulates radio and television?

• A. FCC
• B. Transceiver
• C. Wave Propagation
• D. Noise

Answer: (A)

The federal agency that regulates radio and television in the United States is the Federal Communications Commission, abbreviated FCC. The FCC handles licensing, assigns frequencies, enforces rules, and sets technical standards for all interstate and international communications by radio and television, as well as other media. Transceiver refers to a device that both transmits and receives signals, not a regulatory body. Wave propagation is about how radio waves travel through space, not regulation. Noise is unwanted interference, not an agency.
