scope:
The present document states the minimum operational and performance requirements for shipborne receivers intended to be connected to an external installation, including a decoder for DSC, and used as receivers for watchkeeping DSC on board ships operating in the mobile MF, MF/HF and VHF band allocated in the ITU Radio Regulations [1] to the maritime mobile service, both in connection with distress and safety communication and in connection with general communication. These requirements include the relevant provisions of the ITU Radio Regulations [1], Recommendation ITU-Rs M.493-13 [3], M.541-9 [9] and the IMO Resolutions A.803 (19) [i.5], A.804 (19) [i.6], A.806 (19) [i.7] and A.694 (17) [i.4]. The present document specifies also technical characteristics, methods of testing and required test results for dedicated watchkeeping receivers for use with radio installations in the GMDSS as required by chapter IV of the SOLAS [i.8].
