of methods for operating your GARMIN VHF 725e.
International VHF Radio communication is governed by the
International Telecommunications Union. (ITU). Rules and
Regulations for use of International Band channels vary throughout
the countries under ITU jurisdiction. It is therefore recommended
that you obtain information about VHF radio use for the specific
areas of planned use.
If you plan to use the USA Channel Band, we recommend that
you obtain a copy of the “Maritime Radio Users Handbook” an
authoritative handbook prepared by the Radio Technical Commis-

Marine radio communication within Canadian boundaries is
governed by Industry Canada (RIC), Marine Communications

operation rules and regulations.
