This RYA one day shore-based course aims to teach you how to operate a VHF/DSC marine radio, the correct procedures and protocol required for efficient radio communications, and how to make Routine, Urgency and Distress calls using VHF Marine Radio equipment with the latest Digital Selective Calling technology.
During the shore-based course you will practice and demonstrate all these skills using real VHF/DSC radios that have been specifically adapted for training purposes.
The day’s session concludes with a short test. Successful completion of the course will qualify you to receive from the RYA, the Short Range Certificate of Competence, which authorises the holder to operate VHF/DSC marine radio equipment.
