[MRCA] USCG 36-Foot Motor Lifeboat Radio

[Thomas Chirhart]

If someone can get the 4 frequencies off the tag I might be able to narrow the 36 to a specific CG District and possibly the unit. Each boat had a working channel specific to their unit and a common channel. I'm not sure when 2182 became the distress channel and when 2670 came into use. 73 Tom K4NCG
