These procedures are intended for guidance only and may be amended to suit the specific equipment available. The diagram should be continuously updated in line with the latest GMDSS recommendations.
Particular attention should be given to Note 3 in the above example. Distress relays and acknowledgements have the same priority as the original alert and must only be sent on the Master's authority'
Ship must not send DSC relays for DSC alerts received on MF and HF.
Relays of HF alerts by DSC must be initiated manually, and must be sent only to coast stations, after a minimum delay of 5 minutes.
