Small Passenger Vessels VHF Radios at Each Steering Station Subpart S of our Rules contains the requirements for compulsory radiotelephone installations for small passenger vessels. Section 80.905(d) requires a VHF radio at each steering station. The Commission proposed to modify this section to permit the installation of a portable VHF-DSC radio to meet this requirement if it is permanently mounted and has a suitable power provision and antenna feed. The Task Force does not concur in accepting a single portable VHF-DSC as equivalent to an installed VHF-DSC

Finally, as proposed by the USCG, we will amend section 80.1085(a)(6) to mandate annual testing of INMARSAT-E EPIRBs. Small Passenger Vessels DSC Upgrades of VHF and MF Radios Background. In the FNPRM, the Commission sought further comment on its proposal in the GMDSS NPRM to amend section 80.905(a)(1)-(4) of its rules, which sets forth the equipment requirements applicable to small passenger vessels, to require that the VHF and MF radios required in these sections be DSC-equipped.
