Hi everyone!
I felt the necessity to add my 2 cents worth to this thread, as there appears to be a misunderstanding of the allocation of channel numbers in both 27MHz and Marine VHF.
ALL vessels should maintain a listening watch on the emergency frequencies (27.88MHz, and VHF Channel 16) at all times. This ensures that any distress/emergency calls are heard by the maximum number of boats that may be in a position to assist, and also means that all vessels are contactable on a known frequency, should you wish to call someone.
The choice of a WORKING frequency should then be made based on local traffic volumes/interference.
Most channels mentioned in previous posts are allocated to ship/shore usage, and NOT ship/ship.
For example: 27.90, 27.91MHz. For ship/ship use 27.94 0r 27.96MHz. Marine VHF ship/ship frequency is Channel 77. (This one mandated by International Law)
Those who have completed their Radio Operator's Certificate for VHF should be well aware of this.
For the record, my Callsign is TOPAZ, and I monitor both VHF on Channel 16, and 27MHz on 27.88MHz.

Totally correct TOPAZ, ta

What I believe the authors replying to this thread are doing is supplying their channel frequencies that they log on/log off with when contacting their local rescue units. The title of the thread is 'Call Sign and Radio Register', a follow up to the CG & VMR threads, I think. 'Register' is this case being interpreted as channel used to register vessel details, not necessarily distress and calling frequencies.

Everyone using VHF is encouraged to do an operators course, and just about all would have done so. I'm sure they are aware of the protocols for distress and calling. Most VHF units have dual watch facility, and I know I always use it.

cheers for the tips

Steve.
