3.3 Sending Distress Relay on Behalf of a Ship in
Distress
3.3.1 Sending distress relay to coast station
You may send the distress relay to a coast station on behalf of a ship in distress in the following
cases:
• You are near the ship in distress and the ship in distress cannot transmit the distress alert.
• Another vessel requests you to transmit the distress relay.
In these cases never use the [DISTRESS] button to transmit the distress relay.
Russian Version
If another distress alert or urgent message is received just after pressing the [CALL] key (for
distress alert relay and distress acknowledgement), the most recently received message has
priority.
1. Press the [CALL] key and press the [ENT] key.
