Knowledge Base Article: Overview of GMDSS Sea Areas and Radio Safety Equipment Requirements

We have recently added a new article to our Knowledge Base section focusing on Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS) and the type of equipment you must use in the sea areas set out by this system.

There are certain types of radios that must be used for specific sea areas to make sure that if you are ever in distress or need to call an SOS, the emergency response team can hear your call and respond in any part of the world. You may have wondered what kind of safety protocols commercial vessels adhere to or you may want a quick easy introduction into GMDSS radios and what is needed.
