Personnel Required

OPERATE THE DSC VHF/FM TRANSCEIVER
MODEL IDENTIFICATION
WARNING
During tactical operations, any vessel can request position through the DSC
VHF/FM transceiver. There is no request authorization required nor can this request
be seen by the vessel operator. During tactical operations, switch SW3 on the AN/
PSN-11 Interface and switchbox should remain in the OFF position and used only as
necessary to prevent unwanted interrogation of position for vessels equipped with
a DSC transceiver not manufactured to military specification. Vessels operating with
a DSC transceiver manufactured to military specification may leave switch SW3 on
the AN/PSN-11 Interface and switchbox in the on position, but must operate with the
covert mode enabled. Failure to comply during tactical operations could result in
injury or death to personnel.
NOTE
The DSC transceiver has been manufactured with different models. These models can be
categorized as military specification and non-military specification transceivers.
