DSC Tab
Digital Selective Calling (DSC) uses marine VHF radio and Global
Positioning System (GPS) technologies to transmit and receive
location information. DSC is used by mariners to assist them in two
major areas: Distress Calls and Position Reporting. See page 22
and the “Appendix” for more information on DSC and using it with
your GPSMAP 182/182C.
