True or False: You need to get approval before operating the AN/PRC-163 Multichannel Radio on any frequency.

The statement is false because military communication protocols require certain operational frequencies for specific functions, and authorization is typically necessary to ensure that transmissions do not interfere with other critical communications or violate restrictions on frequency use. However, within the scope of certain training or standardized operations, individuals may have pre-approved frequencies for use without needing to seek additional permissions each time. Moreover, approval might only be necessary for certain sensitive or restricted frequencies. Thus, while controls exist for operational integrity and security, individuals may not need constant approval within a designated framework.
