Suppose you are coordinating safety for a sailboat race. Before the race starts, you instruct all the racers to enter your group MMSI number into their radios. During the race: Throughout the race, you use group calling to update the racers on the time, race status, and any course corrections. A power boat full of spectators comes a little too close to the race path. You use individual calling to contact the power boat and advise them to stay clear of the race. You see a rowboat entering the area, but since it doesn't have a radio, you can't communicate with the rowboat. You use all ships calling to alert all the other boats in the area of the possible danger. Calling a single station (Individual Call) To call a single station with DSC, follow the steps below: All ships call Individual call All ships call Group call 1.
