Assigning Authority (USA and Canada)
Thank you Rick for your detailed reply.
I think my question still boils down to whether a DSC All Ships Distress Alert
sent e.g. from Bahamian waters from a radio with a BoatUS-issued MMSI would be
treated equally as a boat with a (U.S.) federally issued MMSI

The basic difference between an MMSI issued by Boat/US and one from the FCC
is the availability of the data to search and rescue agencies

I don't think the functionality of the radio or DSC is compromised simply
because you travel outside of US waters I also don't think radios in other
countries are designed to screen out calls with the "wrong" DSC number.
Put in the situation you speak of, I wouldn't hesitate to place a DSC

Forgot to mention that the radio has an integrated GPS.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for the reply.
I'm just trying to determine whether, in the highly unlikely event I were
to have a dire emergency in Bahamian waters and I used my radio to
broadcast my distress, that it would somehow go unnoticed because my MMSI
doesn't end in a zero.
When having to choose betwe
To start, "they" may not be able to determine the boat information from the
database. Beyond that, it may give that foreign government grounds to fine

As I understand it, both Canadian and US boaters have a choice for
quick-easy-free MMSI number assignment (by Industry Canada or BoatUS) or a
slower, not-free gov't issued MMSI number (which ends in a zero).
Non-gov't issued
