IMPORTANT NOTE
VHF handhelds used in the United States should use the MMSI assigned
to the ship to which the handheld is primarily associated, even if another
radio on that ship uses the same MMSI. If you plan to use the handheld
on other boats, you might want a separate MMSI number so that you can
update the registration according to which boat it is currently on.
European users should check with the local marine regulatory authority in
their country for assistance in obtaining an MMSI for handheld DSC radio.
