The message type and the message identification codes are as follows.
The message identification codes displayed on upper-left side of the message text screen (niA01. in the
above example) indicates the message type.
These codes consist of four alpha-numeric characters which denote the coast station originating the
message, the message type and the report number.
a. First character
The coast station that has transmitted the message is assigned by a character from A to Z.
b. Second character
This character identifies the type of message.
[A] Navigational warnings
[B] Meteorological warnings
[C] Ice reports
[D] Search and rescue information, and pirate attack warnings
[E] Meteorological forecasts
[F]
Pilot service messages
[G] AIS
[H] LORAN-e messages
[J] SATNAV messages
[K] Other electronic navaid messages
[L] Navigational warnings (Additional to letter
MA")
[V - Y]
Special services
[Z] QRU (No messages on hand)
c. Third and fourth characters
These characters denote the report number assigned to the message by the coast station where the
message originated.
The four-character identification code is stored in memory only when the message is received at a
character error rate (CER) of 33% or less. When an incoming message has the same identification code
as one already stored message at CER of 4% or less in memory (about 70 hours), it will not be displayed
and stored. The above, however, does not apply to report number '00'. For report number '00', the
code Is not held In memory and messages are displayed and stored each time they are received
when the stations are selected.
