9. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS

Tables on the following columns list the VHF Marine Channel assignments 

for USA. and International use. Below are listed some data about the charts.
1.  VTS. Where indicated, these channels are part of the U.S. Coast Guard’s 

Vessel Traffic System.

2.  Alpha channel numbers, that is, channel numbers followed by the letter A 

(such as Channel 07

A

) are 

simplex

 channels on the USA. or Canadian 

channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assign-

ments are 

duplex

 channels. International channels do not use “alpha” 

numbers. If you call the Coast Guard on Channel 16, they will sometimes 

ask you to “

go to channel 22 Alpha

.” This is a channel assigned to USA, 

and Canadian Coast Guards for handling distress and other calls. If your 

radio is set for 

International

 operation you will go to Channel 22 instead 

of 22

A

, and will not be able to communicate with the Coast Guard. To 

use Channel 22

A

, your radio must be set for 

USA

 or 

Canada

 operation, 

usually by a U/I/C (USA/International/Canada) control or combination of 

controls. Channel 22 (without an “A”) is an 

International

 duplex channel 

for port operations. Some radios indicate an “A” adjacent to the alpha 

channels on the display; on others “alpha” is not indicated but the proper 

channel is selected based on the U/I/C setting.

3.  Bridge-to-Bridge channels (for example, Channel 13) are for use by 

bridge operators on inter-coastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by 

marine vessels in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for com-

municating with the bridge operators. Note that a limit of 1 Watt is speci-

fied for these channels. 

4. The 

S/D

 column on the chart indicates either S (simplex) or D (duplex). 

Simplex

 means transmitting and receiving on the same frequency. Only 

one party at a time can talk, unlike a telephone. Be sure to say “

over

” 

and release your microphone push-to-talk switch at the end of each 

transmission. 

Duplex

 operation involves the use of one frequency for 

transmitting and a separate frequency for receiving. On channels speci-

fied as duplex on the charts, correct mode of operation is established au

-

tomatically by your radio when you select a channel; you cannot change 

the mode. And you still must release the push-to-talk switch after each 

transmission in order to listen to the radio.

5.  Channels normally used by recreational boaters are those that include 

the term “non-commercial” in the 

Channel Use

 column of the chart. 

Some of these are shared with other users and some are used only in 

certain geographic regions.
