Radio Messages (GMDSS)

Radio messages on sea have to follow the rules of the international communication standard GMDSS (current version WRC-07). Each message type has it own syntax.

This App. provides example messages based on GMDSS for your boat.

By entering your MMSI, call sign and ship name, the app generates examples for the different type of messages. Also it shows the general syntax of the message type.

You can use this app as a reference, help while using the radio on board or as assistence while learning for a radio certificate like SRC or LRC (short range certificate, long range certificate).

The following messages are described in the App.:

- Distress call (Mayday)
- Forwarding a distress call (Mayday)
- Acknoledge a distress call
- Quiting the distress call
- Cancelling a distress call (false alarm)
- Urgency messages (Pan Pan)
- Safety messages (Securité)
- Routine radio messages
- Demanding radio quietness

Why is that App not free of charge? By buying the App. you help to run the German Sailing Portal http://www.segel-berichte.de. This website offers different information for skippers. For example: Detailled information about radio certificates...
