Digital Selective Calling (DSC)
Digital Selective Calling has been chosen by the International Maritime
Organization (IMO) as an international standard for establishing VHF, MF
and HF radio calls. Digital Selective Calling has also been selected as part
of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). This service
will let you instantly send a Distress call with GPS position to the US
Coast Guard and other vessels within range of the transmission.
DSC will also let you initiate or receive distress, urgency, safety, position
information and routine calls to or from another vessel outfitted with a
DSC transceiver. See the Setup Section (page 40) for instructions on how
to setup the directory of names.
