It is a good idea to write out a script of the message form and post it where you
and others on your vessel can see it when an emergency message needs to be sent.

Marine Distress Procedure – DSC
•
Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a semi-automated system that will allow you to press
the Distress button from any routine to make a distress call. When the distress button
is pressed, all other channels go to Standby mode and allow the digitally encoded “pre-
programmed” message to take precedence. Important information such as your MMSI
number, position and name will be transmitted on Channel 16. The distress alarm will
sound for two (2) minutes or until the alarm is cleared.
The DSC system allows you to choose a “pre-programmed” distress call such as: “Man
Overboard, Sinking, Collision.” There are many pre-programmed choices to choose
from. If a GPS is connected to your radio, your coordinates will also be sent to the
Coast Guard as well as to other vessels that are within range of the transmission. DSC
calling also allows the user to initiate and receive distress, urgent, safety, routine,
position request, position send and group calls between vessels equipped with DSC
capable radios.
WARNING
This radio will generate a digital maritime distress and safety signal to help
facilitate search and rescue. This radio must be used only within communication
range of a shore based VHF station with a distress and safety watch system.
The range of the signal may vary.
