I have the same situation: fixed and handheld both with DSC. From my
MMSI certificate:
/
//All radios and other MMSI-requiring equipment (such as AIS units)
permanently associated with the vessel should use the same MMSI. The
MMSI number will////remain with that vessel and its equipment regardless
of owner. The registration must be cancelled or updated to reflect a new
owner upon sale or trade of the////vessel./

Long story, but our local racing fleet has made a requirement that a
boat must carry a handheld VHF _with DSC_ for offshore.
Admittedly, I haven’t looked into this yet, but my question to this
crowd is; I already have an issued MMSI number for the boat’s AIS, is
it smart to use that same number for the handheld also? It seems,
since it is portable and I theoretically could carry the handheld to
any boat, I should register it with it’s own MMSI. Is anyone aware
of requirements or standard procedure for this?
Second question, are other fleets out there requiring this?
Thanks,
