🔍 Key Concepts

• Distress vs. urgency vs. safety calls on VHF (how they differ) • Standard priority order: safety broadcasts, urgency calls, and distress calls • What phrase is associated with the highest level of danger to life

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In a man overboard, is someone’s life immediately at risk, or is it only a safety information broadcast? • Which of these words is used internationally to signal the highest priority emergency on VHF? • Which option is actually a formal radio procedure word, and which are just plain-language descriptions of the situation?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term is used for distress (immediate danger to life) calls on VHF • Confirm which term is used for urgency (but not immediate danger) situations • Confirm which term is used for navigational safety information broadcasts
