There are 6 dedicated distress frequencies for simplex FEC telex distress:
2174.5 kHz (Channel 1), 4177.5 kHz (Channel 411), 6268 kHz (Channel 611),
8376.5 kHz (Channel 801), 12520 kHz (Channel 1287) and 16695 kHz
(Channel 1624).
When selecting a channel number the corresponding frequency is
automatically displayed.
Selecting the recipient for the call
Broadcast FECs are broadcast to all stations listening on the selected
frequency, so you cannot specify recipients for broadcast calls.
For ARQ or Selective FEC you must specify the recipient for your telex.
• If the recipient is in the Con
tacts list, simply select the recipient from the
list.
• If the recipient is in the Co
ast stations list, select the recipient and then
select the frequency to use.
• If the recipient is not in any of the lists, type in the recipient’s number in
the Call code field. You can use either a 9-digit MMSI number or a 4-digit
or 5-digit selective calling number.
Coast stations have either a 9-digit MMSI number starting with 00 or a 4-digit
selective call (SelCall) number.
Ship contacts have either a 9-digit MMSI number or a 5-digit SelCall number.
