    This document contains information about maritime radio communication procedures. It discusses using the phonetic alphabet for call signs and spelling, transmitting numbers as separate digits, and routine communication exchanges. An example routine communication exchange provides a model dialog where one vessel asks the other its estimated time of arrival and receives an answer. The exchange demonstrates identifying vessels, switching channels, asking and answering a question, and closing the communication.

    Letters
    The phonetic alphabet must be used when giving call-signs, when spelling a word or when saying
    individual letters. Listen twice and repeat during the second reading. NOTE: The stress falls on the
    underlined syllable
    Numbers
    Always transmit all numbers as separate digits!
    Standing by on channel…
    Changing Channel
    Channel is not available
    Repeat… Understood…
    Say again…
    How do you read me?
    Calling Unknown Ship
    Mistake…correction…
    Unit 2 : Routine Communication
    ROUTINE TRAFFIC - GENERAL

    Routine is the name used for all radio communication, which is not
    distress, urgency or safety communication. To identify a vessel either its
    name, call sign or other identification (for example the MMSI number
    of the vessel) can be used. In routine communication identification of
    vessels can be given 1-3 times. In continued radio traffic between the
    same vessels once is normally enough.
