Mariners Guide To Marine Comm. 2nd Ed.

Aimed at watchkeeping officers and
those aspiring to their GMDSS
certificates, this practical and concise
guide takes the reader through a typical
voyage and all the communication
routines which will be required, both for safety and commercial
reasons. Crew calls are covered and examples of costings are
given. Regulations, satellite and land-based radio systems are
described, distress, emergency and safety communications are
covered. Items on radio equipment, basic maintenance and
inspections and correct record keeping make this a very
useful handbook.
