🔍 Key Concepts

• Radiotelephone distress procedure (MAYDAY) format and sequence • Meaning of DE in radio communications and where it appears in a distress call • How many times the distress signal and call sign are repeated in a proper distress call

💭 Think About

• Which option best matches the standard ITU/USCG radiotelephone distress format you’ve studied (MAYDAY calls)? • Think about the full structure: distress signal, word DE, then what information follows and how often is each part repeated? • Does any option show both the distress signal and the vessel’s call sign, and indicate how many times each is said?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how many times the distress signal (e.g., MAYDAY) is transmitted at the start of the call • Check whether the correct sequence includes the word DE between the distress signal and the vessel’s call sign • Confirm that the vessel’s call sign is also repeated and note how many times, then compare that detail against the choices
