DSC or Digital Selective Calling is a part of the
Global Maritime Distress and Safety System -
GMDSS.
This safety system ensures that all coastal stations
and commercial vessels automatically will moni-
tor channel 70 for digital distress calls.
GMDSS is being implemented gradually and will
be fully deployed before 1999.
