Which of these statements regarding a multi-frequency MF/HF DSC Distress alert is FALSE?
Some units transmit on the mandatory MF/HF DSC watch frequencies first, and then on the others.
Some units transmit in ascending order of propagation radius to alert nearby ships or shore stations first.
May be transmitted in any order programmed by the GMDSSS operator .
Multi-frequency alerts work quite differently, depending on the manufacturer and require care and understanding of the feature.
