Hi all

probably a dumb as question but I want to get it right.

Just bought myself a wee boat and it seems a vhf radio is a good thing to have.

Just wondering what UIC channel it needs to be set to. It comes with US as default, but can do Canadian and International.

It’s probably bloody obviously international, but as I say it’s not worth guessing and getting it wrong.

Thanks folks
