Due to the narrow bandwidth of the transmissions a longer range may be expected compared to radiote lephony The frequencies for radiotelex distress and safety traffic are 2174 5 kHz 4177 5 kHz 6268 kHz 8376 5 kHz 12520 kHz and 16695 kHz Working frequencies for public correspondence with coast stations are arranged in pairs For the HF bands these channels are allocated numbers by ITU on an international basis In addition a number of simplex frequencies are available in each band for ship to ship communication DSC DSC Digital Selective Calling is an automatic calling system which allows a specific station to be contacted and made aware that a station wishes to communicate with it In addition to calls to specific stations the system can also be used to call groups of ships and this is of significance for its use for DSC distress alerting DSC is an alerting signal only and the communication which follows the call is made on an appropriate frequency band using radiotelephony or radiotelex The frequencies for DSC distress and safety calling are 2187 5 kHz 4207 5 kHz 6312 kHz 8414 5 kHz 12577 kHz and 16804 5 kHz Calling frequencies for public correspondence with coast stations are arranged in pairs both international and national frequencies are assigned In addition the frequency 2177 kHz may be used for ship to ship calling 0725 3 2 Basic functions o a 2 1 2 5 Powering MF HF The MF HF is turned on
