NonFederal MMSI's are issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). You will need to obtain a nine digit MMSI number and program it into the MYSTIC. The information obtained from the application is useful to the U.S. Coast Guard to help in search and rescue operations. You will also need it to send and receive DSC calls. To obtain an MMSI number, contact your authorized Uniden dealer or visit one of the following websites: http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/fctsht14.html, www.boatus.com/mmsi/, http://www.maritelusa.com, or http://www.4seatow.com.
