3.2.3 Group MMSI
For boats that are part of a flotilla, racing/fishing fleet, or other
group, a Group ID MMSI number can also be entered and used
to contact other boats in the same fleet (see section 1.7).
Note The Group MMSI number may be allocated on a temporary ba-
sis by the local administration, for this reason the number can
be changed by the user.
From the Numbers menu (section 3.2) select “GROUP MMSI”
– the display will show “GROUP MMSI” and the Group MMSI
number (unless the number has not been entered yet, in which
case it will show “0 – – –”).
To enter the Group MMSI number press O
K again. The display
will show “ENTER MMSI” and the first dash in the number
will start flashing to indicate that entry can begin. The first digit
of a Group MMSI is always 0, and this is preselected by the
radio. Enter the remaining eight digits using the numeric key-
pad, then press O
K
(Fig 3.7).
