Canceling a Distress Call

  1. While a DSC distress call is active, select Cancel.
  2. Select Yes to confirm the cancellation of your distress call.

    The radio switches to channel 16 and shows a cancellation announcement script, generated automatically using your callsign and MMSI number.

  3. Pick up the fist mic, hold the push-to-talk (PTT) button, and read the cancellation message.

    For example, "All stations, all stations, all stations, this is _____(callsign), _____(callsign), _____(callsign), MMSI ____ (MMSI number). Cancel my distress alert of ____(time)."
