Newsletter 3 http://a0130905.uscgaux.info/images/Digital-Selective-Calling-Fact-Sheet.pdf Fact Sheet Digital Selective Calling Radios Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a VHF radio technology that provides recreational boaters with two unique features which will be discussed below. To be fully functional three items must be available: A DSC radio A Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number A compatible GPS or Loran unit The MMSI is a unique nine (9) digit number that is assigned to a DSC radio station. If the boater has a valid Federal Communications Commission (FCC) station license or plans to operate in international waters they need to contact the FCC to get an MMSI. Otherwise, they can register with BoatUS or SEATOW Services by obtaining an MMSI Assignment form. Forms are available on the BoatU.S. website www.BoatUS.com or by calling 1-800-563-1536, and the SEATOW Services web site www.SEATOW.com . Some important points to consider are: Each vessel you own needs to have a discrete MMSI to be properly identified. The boater needs to keep their MMSI Assignment data current. Depending on the make and model of the DSC radio, it may limit the number of times you can try to program your MMSI number into the radio. Typically the radios offer you two (2) chances before locking out future attempts forcing you to send the radio back to the manufacturer. DSC technology makes a VHF radio function more like a telephone. It allows boaters to send a digital call directly to another DSC equipped vessel or shore station. In an emergency, one push of a button and the DSC radio will send an automated digital distress alert consisting of your identification (MMSI), and position (if the radio is connected to a GPS or Loran unit) to other DSC equipped vessels and rescue facilities. You can privately hail another DSC equipped vessel, or shore station, if you know their MMSI. It is similar to having a VHF phone number which “rings” the radio called and then automatically switches you to a pre-determined working channel. Rescue 21 is the Coast Guard system that will provide the May Day response capability described above. For more details on the Rescue 21 System and its availability in your area visit www.uscg.mil/rescue21 . The Global Maritime distress and Safety System (GMDSS) is the international system governing safety radio equipment on commercial ships.

  • Birds of Bledsoe Creek State Park
    Birds of Bledsoe Creek State Park Bledsoe Creek is a small park located in the state’s Central Basin on the shore of impounded Bledsoe Creek, a tributary of Old Hickory Lake. The park offers camping, fishing, hiking, and interpretation of Middle Tennessee history. Over four and a half miles of trails take visitors from the lakeshore to a high ridgetop. From these locations a variety of birds ranging from waders and wintering waterfowl to transient and nesting songbirds may be observed. One hundred and sixteen species have been recorded at the park. Responsible Birding - Do not endanger the welfare of birds. - Tread lightly and respect bird habitat. - Silence is golden. - Do not use electronic sound devices to attract birds during nesting season, May-July. - Take extra care when in a nesting area. - Always respect the law and the rights of others, violators subject to prosecution. - Do not trespass on private property. - Avoid pointing your binoculars at other people or their homes. - Limit group sizes in areas that are not conducive to large crowds.
