§ 80.357 Working frequencies for Morse code and data transmission.
This section describes the working frequencies assignable to maritime
stations for A1A, J2A, J2B (2000-27500 kHz band only), or J2D
(2000-27500 kHz band only) radiotelegraphy.
(a) Ship station frequencies--(1) Frequencies in the 100-160 kHz band.
The following table describes the working carrier frequencies in the
100-160 kHz band which are assignable to ship stations. A ship station
may also transmit on a radiotelegraphy working channel of a coast
station within the 100-160 kHz band when directed to do so by the coast
station provided interference is not caused to any land, fixed,
broadcast, or radiolocation station.

(2) Frequencies in the 405-525 kHz band. The following table describes
the working carrier frequencies in the 405-525 kHz band which are
assignable to ship stations. A ship station may transmit on a
radiotelegraphy working channel of a coast station in the 415-490 kHz
band when directed to do so by the coast station.

^1The frequency 410 kHz may be used on a secondary basis for the
transmission of radiodetermination information and for transmitting by
radiotelegraph radiodetermination related messages to direction-finding
stations.
^2The frequency 512 kHz may be used as a supplementary calling
frequency when 500 kHz is used for distress, safety and urgency
communications. The use of the 512 kHz as a working frequency is
prohibited in areas where it is used as a supplementary calling
frequency when 500 kHz is used for distress, safety, and urgency
communications.
^3The frequency 518 kHz is a receive only frequency by ship stations.
It is used by U.S. Coast Guard coast stations for NB-DP transmissions
of meteorological and navigational warnings to ships.
(3) Frequencies in the 2000-27500 kHz band. This paragraph describes
the working frequencies and Channel Series in the 2000-27500 kHz band
which are assignable to ship stations.
(i) Two Channel Series will be assigned for routine use to each ship
station. Frequencies from any other Channel Series may be used if the
frequencies in the assigned Channel Series are not adequate for
communications.

(ii) If the frequencies listed in paragraph (3)(i) of this section are
not adequate for communications, ship stations may use any of the
non-paired narrow-band direct-printing frequencies listed in § 80.361(b)
of this part for A1A or J2A radiotelegraphy.
(b) Coast station frequencies--(1) Frequencies in the 100-27500 kHz
band. The following table describes the working carrier frequencies in
the 100-27500 kHz band which are assignable to coast stations located
in the designated geographical areas. The exclusive maritime mobile HF
bands listed in the table contained in § 80.363(a)(2) of this chapter
are also available for assignment to public coast stations for A1A,
J2A, J2B, or J2D radiotelegraphy following coordination with government
users.
