Since I do a lot of sailing in NY Harbor, I monitor VHF13 all the

13 is automatic low power on all radios AFIK

For the US channel plan this seems to be a requirement?

Problem is, many US-made radios is still 1W on 13 even in
international mode (Motorola for example), and that's pretty annoying
sometimes.
