Watch Receiver:
A
watch receiver is a receiver dedicated to guarding a distress frequency. A high
seas watch receiver is usually quiet. It will un-squelch when a distress signal
of the proper format is received. It will not respond to ordinary calls to
establish communication. The frequency is 2.182MHz, the international distress
and calling frequency. A marine V.H.F. watch receiver is dedicated to guarding
channel 13 (156.650MHz) for safety (security) broadcasts. It is especially
useful for vessels running coast wise or in harbors. Some channel 13 receivers
include a transmitter so that a safety situation can be transmitted to other
stations in the vicinity.
