Reference group would be the members of the National Marine Safety Committee who attempt to try and coodinate legislation on a national common basis.
The status-quo exists with 27MHz radio, no change, but it was discussed in the process in determining the National Standard for Recreational Boat Safety Equipment. True, there is no current phase out of 27MHz but there has been some talk about limiting use to inshore waters, that is within 2nm of land.
In essence 27MHz has no official capacity in the marine distress system and VHF should be encouraged.
Some realy good info here Bugs.
Makes huge sense to legitimise its existence by restricting it's use for the purpose it was really designed for.
Is their anywhere I can read the discussion etc on the web? I am very interested.
Cheers Lloyd
