How often must a compulsory vessel's GMDSS radio station be inspected?
Annually, by the FCC or designated authority .
Annually, by the U.S. Coast Guard.
Annually, by the FCC, and every six months if the vessel sails outside of Sea Areas A1 and A2.
The FCC's annual inspection may be waived if and only if monthly inspections are performed by the vessel's on-board GMDSS Radio Maintainer.
