For several years, channel 9 was used in some areas to establish

was that this would leave 16 free for emergencies. The experiment was
abandoned because
it reduced the number of vessels monitoring Channel 16.

times,

generally on weekends. No emergency situation was taking place. I heard

this

message on numerous occasions, read live.
