operators and equipment licensing.

The Ray49E includes equipment for Class "D" Digital Selective Calling (DSC). A
nine-digit Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number is required to operate
the DSC equipment. In some areas, a radio operator license is required before an
MMSI number will be issued.
You can request an MMSI number from the same agency that issues radio or Ship

Radio licences in your area. Once obtained, you can program the MMSI number into your
Ray49E as described in this handbook.

A Group ID MMSI number can also be entered for vessels that are part of a group,
such as a flotilla or racing fleet, enabling DSC communications within the group.
