Marine VHF is all simplex; you never need a tone to listen. 😉 ________________________________ From: BVARC <[email protected]> on behalf of Gayle Dotts via BVARC <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 16, 2023 8:09 PM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB <[email protected]> Cc: Gayle Dotts <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [BVARC] Marine frequency wanted

After you call them there, they're likely to tell you to switch to 22 to keep 16 open. 9 is the "hailing channel." 69, 72, and a couple of others allow recreational boaters to talk to one another... Somebody around here likely knows the fun channels to monitor around Port of Houston, Galveston Bay, etc. I think a lot of kayak fishermen just use FRS/GMRS, though they may keep a marine VHF radio in the boat in case they get in trouble on the water... ________________________________ From: BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Christopher Boone via BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Monday, January 16, 2023 7:11 PM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: Christopher Boone <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Darren Harrison <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Tom Watson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [BVARC] Marine frequency wanted Encryption is not used in Part 80 Marin So lots to listen to 🥲 Chris WB5ITT On Mon, Jan 16, 2023, 6:30 PM Darren Harrison via BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Yes, you can unless it’s encrypted, but you probably wouldn’t hear that anyway.

The most important channels on your VHF radio are 13, 16, 19, 22, and 70. Channels 24-28 used to be interesting with phone calls but they are usually quiet now as cell phones came along...
