Report your position in latitude/longitude, or give a true or magnetic
bearing to a well-known landmark such as a navigation aid or geographic
feature such as an island or harbor entry.

life-threatening injury, etc.).
Step 5

Note

The total transmission should be within one minute.

The FM-4850 has DSC Distress calling, which can send a distress call
digitally to all ships with compatible DSC radios. For more information, see
section 4 DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING.

If the emergency call is accidentally sent, please refer to "Sending a
distress cancel call" in paragraph 4.3.1.
1.2 How to Call another Channel (CH16 or CH9)
CH16 (or CH9, depending on area) should be used as the calling channel for initial
contact with another vessel. However, its primary purpose is for emergency
communications and should be monitored at all times when the radio is not using
other channels.
CH16 or CH9 is monitored by other vessels and Coast Guard stations in all
countries.
