Station License An FCC ship station license is no longer required for any vessel traveling in U.S. waters which uses a VHF marine radio, RADAR or EPIRB, and which is not required to carry radio equipment. A license is necessary however for a DSC MMSI number, any vessel required to carry a marine radio on an international voyage, carrying a HF single side band radiotelephone or marine satellite terminal. FCC license forms, including applications for ship (506) and land station licenses can be downloaded via the Internet at www.fcc.gov/forms. To obtain a form from the FCC, call (888) 225-5322. Radio Call sign Currently the FCC does not require recreational boaters to have a Ship Radio Station License. The USCG recommends the boats registration number and the state to be used. Canadian Ship Station Licensing You do not need a license if your vessel is not operated in sovereign waters of a country other than Canada or the U.S.A. If you do need a license contact their nearest field office or regional office or write: Industry Canada Radio Regulatory Branch Attn: DOSP 300 Slater Street Ottawa, Ontario Canada, KIA 0C8 page 1 Standard Horizon Marine Radios

OPERATING PRACTICES Emergency (Channel 16 Use) Channel 16 is known as the Hail and Distress Channel. An emergency may be defined as a threat to life or property. In such instances, be sure the transceiver is on and set to CHANNEL 16. Then use the following procedure: 1. Press the microphone push-to-talk switch and say “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday. This is , , ” (your vessel's name). 2. Then repeat once: “Mayday, ,” (your vessel’s name). 3. Now report your position in latitude/longitude, or by giving a true or magnetic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a navigation aid or geographic feature such as an island or harbor entry. 4. Explain the nature of your distress (sinking, collision, aground, fire, heart attack, life-threatening injury, etc.). 5. State the kind of assistance your desire (pumps, medical aid, etc.). 6. Report the number of persons aboard and condition of any injured. 7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel. 8. Give your vessel's description: length, design (power or sail), color and other distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1 minute. 9. End the message by saying “OVER”. Release the microphone button and listen. 10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no response, try another channel. Calling Another Vessel (Channel 16 or 9) Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel. However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel. It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other vessels. Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Calling should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals. In areas of heavy radio traffic, congestion on channel 16 resulting from its use as a hailing channel can be reduced significantly in U.S. waters by using channel 9 as the initial contact (hailing) channel for non- emergency communications. Here, also, calling time should not exceed 30 seconds but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals. Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in this manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after initial contact. page 3 Standard Horizon Marine Radios

For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts are some of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational) boaters. Monitor your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting other traffic, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for your initial contact. When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, state the name of the other vessel you wish to call and then “this is” followed by the name of your vessel and your Station License (Call Sign). When the other vessel returns your call, immediately request another channel by saying “go to”, the number of the other channel, and "over." Then switch to the new channel. When the new channel is not busy, call the other vessel. After a transmission, say “over”, and release the microphone's push-to-talk (PTT) switch. When all communication with the other vessel is completed, end the last transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word “out”. Note that it is not necessary to state your Call Sign with each transmission, only at the beginning and end of the contact. Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels or when scanning; see your Owner's Manual. Making Telephone Calls To make a radiotelephone call, use a channel designated for this purpose, The fastest way to learn which channels are used for radiotelephone traffic is to ask at a local marina. Channels available for such traffic are designated Public Correspondence channels on the channel charts in this manual. Some examples for USA use are Channels 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 84, 85, 86, and 87. Call the marine operator and identify yourself by your vessel's name, The marine operator will then ask you how you will pay for the call (telephone credit card, collect, etc.) and then link your radio transmission to the telephone lines. The marine telephone company managing the VHF channel you are using may charge a link-up fee in addition to the cost of the call. Operating On Channels 13 And 67 Channel 13 is used at docks and bridges and by vessels maneuvering in port. Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing in restricted waters. Channel 67 is used for navigational traffic between vessels. By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your radio is programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these channels. However, in certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily use a higher power. See your Owner's Manual for means to temporarily override the low-power limit on these two channels. Marine Radios Standard Horizon page 4

Prohibited Communications The FCC prohibits the following communications: n False distress or emergency messages: n Messages to "any boat" except in emergencies and radio tests; n Messages to or from a vessel on land; n Transmission while on land; n Obscene, indecent, or profane language (potential fine of $10,000). NOAA Weather Alert Testing In the event of a major storm or other appreciable weather condition requiring vessels at sea or other bodies of water to be notified, the NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) broadcasts a 1050 Hz tone that some marine VHF radios can detect. (Refer to your radio's Owner's Manual on how to use this feature.) This tone, when detected, will produce a loud beep from the radio speaker to signal that a weather alert is being broadcast. In order to test this system, the NOAA broadcasts the 1050 Hz tone every Wednesday, sometime between 11 AM and 1 PM. Any marine VHF radio that can detect the weather alert tone, may use this test to verify that this feature is functioning properly, page 5 Standard Horizon Marine Radios

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) Digital Selective Calling is a semi-automated method of establishing a radio call, it has been designated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) as an international standard for establishing VHF, MF and HF radio calls. It has also been designated part of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and it is planned that DSC will eventually replace aural watches on distress frequencies and will be used to announce routine and urgent maritime safety information broadcasts. This new service will allow mariners to instantly send a distress call with GPS position (when connected to the transceiver) to the US Coast Guard and other vessels within range of the transmission. DSC will also allow mariners to initiate or receive distress, urgency, safety and routine calls to or from another vessel equipped with a DSC transceiver. USCG DSC Watch The USCG has plans to upgrade its VHF National Distress System (expected by 2005), so at the time of printing only larger vessels that are required to carry VHF DSC radios will be able to hear your distress transmission Maritime Mobile Service Identity(MMSI) What is a MMSI? A MMSI is a nine digit number used on Marine Transceivers capable of using Digital Selective Calling (DSC). This number is used like a telephone number to selectively call other vessels. How can I obtain a MMSI assignment? At the time of this printing, to obtain an MMSI the user must contact the FCC and apply for a Ship Station License form 506, or an amendment to a ship station license, regardless of whether the license is otherwise required. This procedure is currently under review by both the FCC and US Coast Guard. Refer to FCC ship station license section for contact information. Using Digital Selective Calling Features Distress Call Transmits a DSC Distress message to all radios equipped to receive a DSC Distress call. Some Standard Horizon radios may be connected to a GPS to also transmit the Latitude, Longitude of the vessel. Marine Radios Standard Horizon page 6

Individual Call This feature allows the user to contact another vessel capable of using DSC to automatically switch the radio to a desired working channel. This feature is similar to calling a desired vessel on CH16 and requesting them to go to another channel. Urgency Call This call should be used when a vessel may not be truly in distress, but have a potential problem that might lead to a distress situation. Safety Call Used to transmit boating safety information to other vessels. This message usually contains information about an overdue boat, a derelict afloat, loss of a navigation aid or an important meteorological message. Position request Used to poll vessels position via DSC and show it on the LCD of the radio. ADDITIONAL DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING INFORMATION For additional information the USCG has an excellent site that should be visited at www.navcen.uscg.mil/marcoms/gmdss/dsc.html About VHF Radio The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158 MHz with some shore stations available between 161 and 163MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially “line of sight” (VHF signals do not travel well through objects such as buildings, hills or trees). Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter. On a fixed mount 25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater than 15 miles, for a portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5 miles in “line of sight”. page 7 Standard Horizon Marine Radios

Selecting an Antenna Marine antennas are made to radiate signals equally in all horizontal directions, but not straight up. The objective of a marine antenna is to enhance the signal toward the horizon. The degree to which this is accomplished is called the antenna’s gain. It is measured in decibels (dB) and is one of the major factors in choosing an antenna. In terms of effective radiated power (ERP), antennas are rated on the basis of how much gain they have over a theoretical antenna with zero gain. A 3 foot, 3dB gain antenna represents twice as much gain over the imaginary antenna. The length of the antenna you choose, however, must also be related to the size of your boat. Typically a 3 foot 3dB gain stainless steel whip is used on a sailboat mast. The longer 8 foot 6dB is primarily used on power boats that require the additional gain. Coaxial Cable VHF antennas are connected to the transceiver by means of a coaxial cable – a shielded transmission line. Coaxial cable is specified by it’s diameter and construction. For runs less than 20 feet, RG-58/U, about 1/4 inch in diameter is a good choice. For runs over 20 feet, the larger RG-8U or RG-213/U should be used. For installation of the connector onto the coaxial cable refer to the figure below. Adapter 1/16'' 3/4'' 3/4'' 1 1/8'' 1/8'' 3/8'' 5/8'' To get your coax cable through a fitting and into your boat's interior, you may have to cut off the end plug and reattach it later. You can do this if you follow the directions that come with the connector. Be sure to make good soldered connections. Marine Radios Standard Horizon page 8

MAINTENANCE General The inherent quality of the solid-state components in STANDARD HORIZON radios will provide many years of continuous use. Take the following precautions to prevent damage to the radio. n Keep the microphone connected or the jack covered at all times to prevent corrosion of electrical contacts; n Never key the transmitter unless an antenna or suitable dummy load is connected to the antenna receptacle; n Ensure that the input voltage does not exceed the value specified in your Owner's Manual; n Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved accessories and replacement parts. Batteries and Chargers CAUTION This section is applicable only for radios with external battery packs. Battery Maintenance For safe and proper battery use, please observe the following: n Battery packs should be charged only in non-hazardous environments; n Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved batteries; n Use only a STANDARD HORIZON, (a division of YAESU USA) approved charger. The use of any other charger may cause permanent damage to the battery; n Follow charging instructions provided with the chargers; n Do not use the radio while it is in the charger; n Keep the battery contacts clean. Battery Storage Store batteries in a cool place to maximize storage life. Since batteries are subject to self-discharge, avoid high storage temperatures that cause large self-discharge rates. After extended storage, a full recharge is recommended. page 9 Standard Horizon Marine Radios

Memory Cycling Partially discharging a nickel-cadmium battery and then recharging it causes a phenomenon called "memory". When a battery establishes a memory, its available capacity is reduced, To ensure that a nickel-cadmium battery pack retains its full capacity, the battery pack should be almost fully discharged and then recharged completely after every few cycles of use. Battery Recycling DO NOT PLACE USED BATTERIES IN YOUR REGULAR TRASH! NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERIES MUST BE COLLECTED, RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND MANNER. The incineration, landfilling or mixing of nickel-cadmium batteries with the municipal solid waste stream is PROHIBITED BY LAW in most areas. Return batteries to an approved nickel-cadmium battery recycler. This may be where you purchased the battery. Contact your local waste management officials for other information regarding the environmentally sound collection, recycling and disposal of nickel-cadmium batteries.

CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS Tables on the following columns list the VHF Marine Channel assignments for U.S.A. 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 07A) are simplex channels on the U.S.A. or Canadian channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assignments 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 U.S.A, 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 22A, and will not be able to communicate with the Coast Guard. To use Channel 22A, your radio must be set for USA or Canada operation, usually by a U/I/C (USA/International/Canada) control or combination of controls (see your Owner’s Manual). 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 intercoastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by marine vessels in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for communicating with the bridge operators. Note that a limit of 1 Watt is specified for these channels. See page 4 for additional information. 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 specified as duplex on the charts, correct mode of operation is established automatically 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. 6. Marine vessels equipped with VHF radios are required to monitor Channel 16. For some radios, this is done automatically when the radio is on; see your Owner’s Manual. page 11 Standard Horizon Marine Radios
