If anyone is interested, I have been asked to let you know that there are a still a few places available for this course:

The course fee is £50.00 and includes a light lunch, the RYA charge is £30.00 for the license.

You also need to provide a recent passport type photo (of yourself) for the license.

Pre course reading is suggested and RYA books G22 and G26 are recommended for this.

Course topics include:

• the basics of radio operation

• the correct frequencies (channels) to be used

• distress, emergency and medical assistance procedures

• making ship to shore telephone calls

• Digital Selective Calling (DSC) using simulators

• Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS)

• Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRB)

• Search and Rescue (SART)

The course will be taught using radio simulators and will be examined by a short written test.
