7.1 MMSID
SPECIAL NOTE
In order to use DSC functions, you must obtain a nine-digit maritime mobile
service identity (MMSI) and program it into your transceiver before you
transmit.
Prior to obtaining an MMSI, you will be asked to provide certain information
about your vessel and communication equipment. Contact the government
radio communication authorities of your country for licensing and MMSI
information. It is important that you obtain an MMSI, because National
Coast Guard authorities use this information to help speed search and rescue
operations.
The procedure for entering your MMSI is described in the MMSID SET topic
of the 6.7 Main Menu Topics.
