The frequency 156.875 MHz has been assigned to VHF Marine Channel 77 for maritime services. Section 80.373(f) of the Rules specifies that VHF Marine Channel 77 may only be used for ship to ship communications. Section 80.13 of the Rules states that stations in the maritime service must be licensed either individually or by fleet.
