Question 1 of 27070

What is the best source of information to find changes or additions to the routine communications frequencies of a Commercial Radio Station?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Routine communications frequencies vs. emergency/distress systems like GMDSS • Difference between coast (shore) stations and ship stations • Which ITU/FCC publications are primarily used to look up radio frequency assignments for coast stations

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which reference is specifically organized by coast (shore) radio stations and lists their working frequencies for routine traffic? • Which option focuses on ships instead of shore stations, and therefore is less likely to be right for a question about a commercial radio station on shore? • Which documents are more about regulations/frameworks (rules) rather than day‑to‑day frequency listings and updates?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are ITU station lists and whether they cover coast or ship stations • Eliminate any answer that mainly deals with GMDSS planning information instead of routine working frequencies • Make sure the choice you pick would reasonably include updated working frequencies and services offered by shore stations
