TEST THE LIFEBOAT RADIO
NOTE
This test requires that a seperate VHF marine radio transceiver be used to monitor
transmitted and received signals. Any transmissions effected for the purpose of testing the
lifeboat radio shall be as brief as possible.
The recommended test message format is as follows: "<name of station receiving the test
message> this is <name of station transmitting this text> <station call sign or call letters>".
example: "BLUE DUCK THIS IS MARY JANE WXT599".
When a second radio telephone or ship's receiver is utilized to monitor proper operation of
the lifeboat radio, the test distance between devices should be kept to a maximum and the
following message format should be observed: "<name of station transmitting this text> this
is <name of station transmitting this text> mobile 1". Example: "MARY JANE THIS IS MARY
JANE MOBILE 1 WXT599". If the unit to be tested is not on board the vessel containing the
fixed station, "UNIT 1" should be used rather than "MOBILE 1".
1.
Remove the lifeboat radio (1) from the lifeboat radio mount (8).
