• Introduction of digital land mobile radio in the EN and ENX bands prior to 1 November 2015 will
be considered on a case by case basis. Licensing of digital land mobile radio in these bands will
be possible in areas where E band users have vacated the band, or when rigorous engineering
analysis guarantees no risk of interference to other band users.
For the list of currently authorized channels, please refer to the following websites:

information, in this order:
1 “MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY.”
2 “THIS IS _____________________, CALL SIGN __________.” State the name of the vessel in
distress 3 times, followed by the call sign or other identification of the vessel, stated 3 times.
3 Repeat “MAYDAY” and the name of the vessel.
4 “WE ARE LOCATED AT _______________________.” State the position of the vessel in distress,
using any information that will help responders to locate you, e.g.:
• latitude and longitude
• bearing (state whether you are using true or magnetic north)
• distance to a well-known landmark
• vessel course, speed or destination
5 State the nature of the distress.
6 Specify what kind of assistance you need.
7 State the number of persons on board and the number needing medical attention, if any.

length and/or tonnage, hull color, etc.
9 “OVER.”
