If you let another amateur radio operator with additional qualifications than yours control your station and operate under your call sign, what operating privileges are allowed?

A.
Any privileges allowed by the additional qualifications
Correct Answer
B.
Only the privileges allowed by your qualifications
C.
All the frequency privileges of the additional qualifications, but only the emission privileges of your qualifications
D.
All the emission privileges of the additional qualifications, but only the frequency privileges of your qualifications

B-001-015-001

Given the owner of the station and the control operator are JOINTLY responsible, they only have in common the lesser of the privileges. Quoted from a 1980 TRC-25: "57) a licensee may permit another certificate holder to operate his station using only such frequencies and emission modes as the licensee is qualified to use or, if the person is not as qualified as the licensee, only such frequencies and emission modes as the person is qualified to use". Interpretation: a licensed visiting operator may only operate the station within your or his privileges, whichever are lower.
