1.8 Messages
You may send and receive messages via VHF channels , to a specified MMSI
or all AIS-equipped ships in the area. Messages can be sent to warn of safety
of navigation; for example, an iceberg sighted. Routine messages are also
permitted.
Short safety-related messages are only an additional means to broadcast
safety information. They do not remove the requirements of the GMDSS.
When a message is received, the equipment beeps and the indication
“MESSAGE” appears. The contents of the message may be viewed on the RX
log.
