OPERATING ON CHANNELS 13 AND 67

Channel 13 is used at docks and bridges and by vessels maneuvering in port. Messages
on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing in restricted
waters.

Channel 67 is used for navigational traffic between vessels.

By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your radio is
programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these channels. However, in
certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily use a higher power. See page 89
([H/L] key) for means to temporarily override the low-power limit on these two channels.
