USER MMSI
Federal MMSI's are issued by the National Telecommunications and
Information Administration. Non-Federal MMSI's are issued by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). You will need to obtain a
nine digit MMSI number and program it into the SOLARA DSC. The
information obtained from the application is useful to the U.S. Coast
Guard to help in search and rescue operations. To obtain an MMSI
number, contact your authorized Uniden dealer or visit one of the
following websites: http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/fctsht14.html,
www.boatus.com/mmsi/, or www.seatow.com/boatingsafety/mmsiinfo.htm
This portion of the SETUP menu will allow you to program an MMSI,
(Maritime Mobile Service Identity) for sending and receiving DSC calls.
