Great Idea...Thanks!
This is a fantastic idea for those of us that can't get out as often as we'd like to......and when we do, it's not a situation of being able to plan on it- and choose the time to hit the water.....the time and the situation chooses us!. With that, there's no telling who's out there (and on the radio) that we know.....which greatly decreases the chances of having a good run- ending up with hit-n-miss.
Kudos to who thought of this!
Are any docks in yet? Is anyone on the water yet?
Thanks in advance,

Re: radio channels
If things are like I think they are, the channels you are talking about 24 and 84 are marine operator channels that were designated by the FCC for use in public sea to shore telephone communication. They are encripted meaning you can only hear one side of the conversation. They are also ( or at least used to be) used by Telephone companies only. A lot has changed in the last few years but be aware there may be problems with these selections. That's the very reason the Non-Com channlels are all cluttered. The rest are all off limits for reports and day to day hailing and chatter.

More about Channel 84
When I say that the channels are encrypted and you can only hear one side of the converstion the reason is you are transmitting on one frequency but your radio automaticaly receives on another because the on shore operations from the telephone company tranmits on a different channel. I am very sure you can not transmit boat to boat on any of the ship to shore dual frequency channels. Your radio does not have the same frequency in transmit and receive as it does in single frequency channles such as 68 or 69. Again the reason for the clutter on the single freq. channels. The channels you have available for ship to ship communications of other than safety related (ch06) are very limited, all other channels are fairly strictly regulated and may involve problems for the user for other purposes.

TIN CAN:
Based upon the FCC page for VHF Radio channel use it appears that you are correct! Looks like we need to change to one of the NONCOMMERCIAL channels listed in the following FCC link and found under noncommercial.
We definately need one we can communicate on if 84 is unavailable to us. What do you guys think? What channel should we use if you agree with my assessment of the situation? I will go along with any choice that pleases the other members. here is the link.
