THE COURSE

The VHF Radio Course is also referred to as the Short-Ranged Certificate (SRC) course.

Learning online takes most people between 5 - 8 hours to complete the course, and pass the mock exam at the end to make sure it’s sunk in!

The course ultimately teaches you how to operate a VHF Radio, either on a base station or hand-held versions and all the associated knowledge and practical skills required for this such as:

  • Making ship-to-shore telephone calls (Marinas etc),

  • The correct frequencies (channels) to be used,

  • Distress, emergency and medical assistance procedures,

  • Digital Selective Calling (DSC) using simulators,

  • Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS),

  • Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRB).
