Page 105HX87017 CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTSTables 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 Trafc 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 specied 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 transmis-sion. Duplex operation involves the use of one frequency for transmitting and a separate frequency for receiving. On channels specied 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.
Page 106HX8706. Marine vessels equipped with VHF radios are required to monitor Channel 16.7. 156.050 MHz and 156.175 MHz are available for port operations and commercial communications purposes when used only within the U.S. Coast Guard designated Vessel Trafc Services (VTS) area of New Orleans, on the lower Mississippi River from the various pass entrances in the Gulf of Mexico to Devil’s Swamp Light at River Mile 242.4 above head of passes near Baton Rouge. 8. 156.250 MHz is available for port operations communications use only within the U.S. Coast Guard designated VTS radio protection areas of New Orleans and Houston described in Sec. 80.383. 156.250 MHz is available for intership port operations communications used only within the area of Los Angeles and Long Beach harbors, within a 25- nautical mile radius of Point Fermin, California. 9. 156.550 MHz, 156.600 MHz and 156.700 MHz are available in the U.S. Coast Guard designated port areas only for VTS communications and in the Great Lakes available primarily for communications relating to the movement of ships in sectors designated by the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation or the U.S. Coast Guard. The use of these frequencies outside VTS and ship movement sector protected areas is permitted provided they cause no interference to VTS and ship movement communications in their respective designated sectors.10. Use of 156.875 MHz is limited to communications with pilots regarding the movement and docking of ships. Normal output power must not exceed 1 watt. 5: 156.375 MHz and 156.650 MHz are available primarily for intership navigational communications. These frequencies are available between coast and ship on a secondary basis when used on or in the vicinity of locks or drawbridges. Normal output power must not exceed 1 watt. Maximum output power must not exceed 10 watts for coast stations or 25 watts for ship stations. 11. On the Great Lakes, in addition to bridge-to-bridge communications, 156.650 MHz is available for vessel control purposes in established vessel trafc systems. 156.650 MHz is not available for use in the Mississippi River from South Pass Lighted Whistle Buoy “2” and Southwest Pass entrance Mid-channel Lighted Whistle Buoy to mile 242.4 above Head of Passes near Baton Rouge. Additionally it is not available for use in the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet, the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet Canal, and the Inner Harbor Navigational Canal, except to aid the transition from these areas. 12. Use of 156.375 MHz is available for navigational communications only in the Mississippi River from South Pass Lighted Whistle Buoy “2” and South-
Page 107HX870west Pass entrance Mid channel Lighted Whistle Buoy to mile 242.4 above head of Passes near Baton Rouge, and in addition over the full length of the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet Canal from entrance to its junction with the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal, and over the full length of the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal from its junction with the Mississippi River to its entry to Lake Pontchartrain at the New Seabrook vehicular bridge.13. Within 120 km (75 miles) of the United States/Canada border, in the area of the Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca and its approaches, 157.425 MHz is half of the duplex pair designated as Channel 88. In this area, Chan-nel 88 is available to ship stations for communications with public coast stations only. More than 120 km (75 miles) from the United States/Canada border in the area of the Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, its approaches, the Great Lakes, and the St. Lawrence Seaway, 157.425 MHz is available for intership and commercial communications. Outside Puget Sound area and its approaches and the Great Lakes, 157.425 MHz is also available for communications between commercial shing vessels and associated aircraft while engaged in commercial shing activities. 14. When the frequency 156.850 MHz is authorized, it may be used addition-ally for search and rescue training exercises conducted by state or local governments. 15. The frequency 156.850 MHz is additionally available to coast stations on the Great Lakes for transmission of scheduled Coded Marine Weather Fore-casts (MAFOR), Great Lakes Weather Broadcast (LAWEB) and scheduled Notices to Mariners or Bulletins. F3C and J3C emissions are permitted. Coast Stations on the Great Lakes must cease weather broadcasts which cause interference to stations operating on 156.800 MHz until the interfer-ence problem is resolved. 16. The frequency 157.100 MHz is authorized for search and rescue training exercises by state or local government in conjunction with U.S. Coast Guard stations. Prior U.S. Coast Guard approval is required. Use must cease immediately on U.S. Coast Guard request. 17.

Page 119HX87022 RF EXPOSURE SAFETY STATEMENTSAFETY INFORMATIONYour wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmit-ter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed, the transceiver sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.This device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50 % (this corresponds to 50% transmission time and 50 % reception time).WARNING: To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, this transmitter and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required separation distance.If you use a headset accessory for this radio, with the radio worn on your body, use only the Yaesu belt clip for this transceiver, and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modications, or attachments could damage the transmitter, and may violate FCC regulations.CONSIGNES DE SECURITEVotre émetteur-récepteur portatif sans l contient un émetteur à faible puissance. Lorsque vous appuyez sur le bouton Push-to-Talk (PTT), l’émetteur-récepteur émet des signaux de radiofréquence (RF). En août 1996, la FCC (Commission Fédérale des Communications) a adopté des directives relatives à l’exposition aux RF avec des niveaux de sécurité pour les appareils sans ls portatifs.Le fonctionnement de cet appareil est autorisé à un facteur d’utilisation ne dépassant pas 50 % (correspondant à 50% de la durée de transmission et 50% de la durée de réception).AVERTISSEMENT: Pour assurer la conformité avec les directives d’exposition RF de la FCC, cet émetteur-récepteur et son antenne doivent être maintenus à une distance minimum d’un pouce (2,5 centimètre) de votre visage. Parlez avec une voix normale, avec l’antenne dirigée vers le haut et éloignée du visage, à la distance requise.Si vous utilisez un casque pour cette radio, et que vous portez la radio sur vous, utilisez exclusivement le clip de ceinture Yaesu pour cet émetteur-récepteur, et assurez-vous que l’antenne se trouve à une distance minimum d’un pouce (2,5 centimètres) de votre corps pendant l’émission.Utilisez exclusivement l’antenne fournie. Les antennes, les modications ou les accessoires non autorisés peuvent endommager l’émetteur-récepteur et enfreindre les réglementations FCC.
