Well now, 2182.0Khz is Distress, Safety, & Calling Frequency worldwide. See CFR 47 Part 80.369 (a) 4125.0Khz on the other hand, is is designated as a Distress, Safety, Calling & Working frequency, and can be used for all those communication types. See CFR 47 Part 80.369 (b, & d with subnotes 1,2,3), and CFR 47 Part 80.373 (c with subnote 2) Now I wouldn't expect a BarRoom Skipper like you, to understand the difference, but Marineers with North Pacific Seatime, certainly would, should, and do, know the difference. Funny how all the North Pacific Weather Data gathering is done on 4125.0Khz for the 45 minutes prior to the Weather Broadcasts from Cold Bay, Kodiak, and Yakatat NWS Stations, that took over after Peggy Dyson (WBH-29) retired. There are stiill a few of us around who can remember the time BEFORE Peggy started transmitting North Pacific Wx to Oscar, while he was out fishing. Me |
