Relay the distress alert in the following cases:
You have not received a distress acknowledge call from a coast station within five
minutes after receiving a distress call.
You have not received a distress relay from other ship.
You cannot receive distress communications from other ship over radiotele-
phone.
The ship relaying the distress alert should establish communications with the sta-
tion controlling the distress as directed and render such assistance as required
and appropriate.
If it is clear the ship or persons in distress are not near your ship and/or other ves-
sels are better placed to assist, superfluous communications which could interfere
with search and rescue activities should be avoided. Details should be recorded in
the log.
When the received distress frequency is different from the current communication
frequency, do the following:
1. Rotate the ENTER knob to select [CHANGE] then push the knob.
2. Rotate the ENTER knob to select the frequency same as the received distress
one then push the knob.
