🔍 Key Concepts

• Auto-alarm function in radiotelegraph distress systems (old SOLAS radiotelegraphy requirements) • What the release (silence) button actually does when a distress auto-alarm goes off • Difference between a true distress alarm and a false/mistaken alarm

💭 Think About

• When the auto-alarm bell sounds, what has the receiver detected in terms of signal pattern? • Does pressing the release/stop button change what type of signal was received, or does it only affect the alarm on your end? • Could the same auto-alarm response be triggered by both correctly formatted distress signals and certain incorrect/accidental transmissions?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what pattern of signals causes the auto-alarm to trigger in classic MF/HF radiotelegraph systems • Confirm the purpose of the release button – does it acknowledge/cancel the alarm or identify whether the signal was true or false? • Ask: after you silence the alarm, is it already known for certain whether the source was a genuine distress or a false alarm, or does this still require operator judgment and listening to traffic?
