The RAY215 includes equipment for Digital Selective Calling (DSC). A
nine-digit Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number is required to
operate the DSC equipment. You can request an MMSI number from the
FCC when you apply for a Station License. If your vessel does not require
a license, you may obtain an MMSI by contacting either BoatUS
(www.boatus.com) or MariTEL (www.maritelusa.com). Once obtained, you
can program the MMSI number into your RAY215 as described in this
handbook.
