ALL SHIPS CALL
An All Ships Call allows your radio to establish contact with
all the other ships in your area without needing to enter their
MMSI. All Ships calls are classified as ROUTINE, SAFETY or
URGENCY. URGENCY calls (similar to a PAN PAN call) may
be sent when a vessel is not in immediate distress but has
a problem that may lead to a distress situation. SAFETY
calls (similar to SECURITY calls) may be sent when safety
information needs to be transmitted to other vessels.
To send an All Ships Call;
