5 Radiocommunications requirements for the system, frequencies on which reports should be transmitted and information to be reported

 The radiocommunications equipment required for the system is that defined in the GMDSS for Sea Area A1.

 The ship reports can be made by voice on VHF radio using Ch 13 (GRIS NEZ TRAFFIC) or Ch 11 (DOVER COASTGUARD).

 Ship reports to DOVER COASTGUARD can alternatively be made by automatic ship-identification transponder, where available, using a suitably adapted DSC facility on VHF Ch 70, or equipment conforming to the standards adopted for the Universal AIS Transponder.

 Confidential information may be transmitted by other means.
