15.5 GROUP DIRECTORY
For this function to operate, the same Group MMSI must be programmed into
all the DSC VHF radios within the group of vessels that will be using this feature. To understand Group MMSI programming, first a Ship MMSI has to be
understood.
Ship MMSI: The first three digits called a MID (Mobile Identity Group) of a Ship
MMSI denote the country the ship registered for a MMSI. The last 6 digits are
specific to the Ships ID.
Ship MMSI Example: If your MMSI is “366123456”, “366” is MID which denote
the country and “123456” is your ships MMSI.
Group MMSI:
 Group MMSI numbers are not assigned by the FCC or other organizations
licensed to assign ship MMSI numbers.
 The first digit of a Group MMSI is always set to “0” by International rules.
All Standard Horizon radios are preset so when programming a Group
MMSI the first digit is set to “0”.
 The USCG recommends programming the MID of a ships MMSI into the
Second, Third and Fourth digits of the Group MMSI as it denotes the area
the ship is located in.
 The last 5 digits are decided upon by persons in the Group. This is an
important step as all radios in the Group must contain the same Group
MMSI so they can be contacted by each other. There is a chance that

17 CMP30 (RAM3) REMOTE MIC OPERATION
When the Remote MIC is connected to the GX1600, all VHF, DSC, setup menus,
AIS, Waypoint, Compass functions and PA/Fog modes can be remotely operated. The CMP30’s operation is same as GX1600 except the receiver audio
volume setting and squelch level setting. The reason for the same operation is
to make the operation of the radio and CMP30 mic easy. For specific operation
of the CMP30 mic review sections in the radio manual. The CMP30 is supplied
with 23 feet (7 m) of routing cable and can be extended up to 70 feet (21 m)
using three 23-foot extension cables model CT-100. The Intercom feature can
be used between the CMP30 and the GX1600. In addition, speaker wires are
supplied at the panel mount of the routing cable for external speakers to be
connected in noisy environments.

19 CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS
Tables on the following columns list the VHF Marine Channel assignments for
U.S.A. and International use. Below are listed some data about the charts.
1. VTS. Where indicated, these channels are part of the U.S. Coast Guard’s
Vessel Traffic System.
2. Alpha channel numbers, that is, channel numbers followed by the letter A
(such as Channel 07A) are simplex channels on the U.S.A. or Canadian
channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assignments
are duplex channels. International channels do not use “alpha” numbers.
If you call the Coast Guard on Channel 16, they will sometimes ask you to
“go to channel 22 Alpha.” This is a channel assigned to U.S.A, and Canadian Coast Guards for handling distress and other calls. If your radio is set
for International operation you will go to Channel 22 instead of 22A, and
will not be able to communicate with the Coast Guard. To use Channel
22A, your radio must be set for USA or Canada operation, usually by a U/
I/C (USA/International/Canada) control or combination of controls. Channel 22 (without an “A”) is an International duplex channel for port operations. Some radios indicate an “A” adjacent to the alpha channels on the
display; on others “alpha” is not indicated but the proper channel is selected based on the U/I/C setting.
3. Bridge-to-Bridge channels (for example, Channel 13) are for use by bridge
operators on inter-coastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by marine
vessels in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for communicating with the bridge operators. Note that a limit of 1 Watt is specified for
these channels.
4. The S/D column on the chart indicates either S (simplex) or D (duplex).
Simplex means transmitting and receiving on the same frequency. Only
one party at a time can talk, unlike a telephone. Be sure to say “over” and
release your microphone push-to-talk switch at the end of each transmission. Duplex operation involves the use of one frequency for transmitting
and a separate frequency for receiving. On channels specified as duplex
on the charts, correct mode of operation is established automatically by
your radio when you select a channel; you cannot change the mode. And
you still must release the push-to-talk switch after each transmission in
order to listen to the radio.
5. Channels normally used by recreational boaters are those that include the
term “non-commercial” in the Channel Use column of the chart. Some of
these are shared with other users and some are used only in certain geographic regions.
