1.3 Entering MMSI numbers
At the time of issue of your vessel’s radio license, an MMSI
(Maritime Mobile Service Identifier) must be requested. This is
a nine-digit number which must be permanently entered into the
RD68 when the radio is first set up, otherwise the DSC func-
tions cannot be accessed.
Note If the boat or the RD68 are subsequently sold, the radio must be
returned to an authorized Simrad agent for the MMSI number
to be erased and the new owner’s MMSI number entered.

For licensing details, please refer to section 1.2.
