RADIO LICENSES
The VHF 725e user accepts all responsibility for obtaining
the proper licensing before using the transmitter. In many
instances, you must have a current radio station license before
using this transceiver. It my be unlawful to operate a ship
station which is not licensed. Inquire through your dealer or
the appropriate government agency for a Ship Radiophone
license application. A government issued radio station license
is issued with the call sign which is your craft’s identification
for radio communication purposes.
OPERATOR’S LICENSE
A Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit is the license
most often acquired by radio operators of small watercraft
when the radio is not required for safety purposes.
This permit must be posted aboard the craft or kept by the
licensed operator. Only a licensed operator may operate a
marine radio (transceiver). Others may talk over a transceiver if
the operator begins, supervises and ends the transmission.
IMPORTANT!
GARMIN strongly recommends obtaining a marine radio
user’s guide appropriate for the geographical location of
intended use. Read and follow instructions for proper use of
your marine radio. Improper usage can result in fines levied on
mariners by regulatory agencies.
