What safety signal call word is spoken three times, followed by the station call letters spoken three times, to announce a storm warning, danger to navigation, or special aid to navigation?
• Distress, urgency, and safety calls in maritime radiotelephone procedure • The different meanings of MAYDAY, PAN PAN, and the safety call used for navigation warnings • When a call is used to broadcast navigational or weather warnings to all stations
• Which call word is specifically associated with distress to life or vessel versus general safety information? • For a storm warning or danger to navigation, are you trying to get immediate help, or are you warning others about a hazard? • Think about which call is used by coast radio stations and vessels to broadcast navigational warnings to everyone in an area.
• Identify which word is reserved ONLY for grave and imminent danger to life or vessel • Identify which word indicates urgency but not immediate danger to life • Identify which word is tied to navigational and weather safety broadcasts rather than a request for assistance
