correctly. To avoid overloading coastal receiving stations, you should limit test calls to
these stations to once a week.
Note: Many coastal stations have specific frequencies and MMSI numbers you should use for
making test calls. Before making a test call to a coastal station, be sure to check the Local
Notice to Mariners (LNM), issued every week by the US Coast Guard. The LNMs for each
region are available online at http://www.navcen.uscg.gov.
