   Being overheard is not broadcast, as long as you are sending to a   
   specific amateur then anyone can listen in without it being a broadcast,   
   otherwise Nets would be on a shaky peg. Nets are permitted because you   
   are technically talking to the net controller in the same way that in a   
   meeting you are technically talking to the Chair.   
   The permitted exceptions being your CQ call which is not being sent to a   
   specific person and RSGB news broadcasts.   
      
   Some question have more than one correct answer but you need to select   
   the most correct answer.
