    I believe Reeds Almanac has a listing of the frequencies.
    
    There should be a new '93 edition on the boat, I bought it in January.

    NYC			212-248-6920		26  25  84
    Altantic City NJ	609-345-5913

    To call the High Seas Operator (world wide operator) 
    
    800-732-2255
    
    this will reach anywhere in the world (more or less)
    ( SINGLE SIDE BAND only)
    
    all you need is the Vessel name, call sign and person on board you
    wish to speak with...
    
    
    	its $15 for the first 3 minutes and $5 a minute after that

Can someone do me a favour, call the High Seas Operator and find out the 
equivalent toll number to the 1 800 number. (Outside the USA its not possible
to dial 1-800 numbers or cross-refer them to a toll number)

Steve

    Steve, the number is (407)850-4895 call COLLECT.
    If you want send me your mail station and I will mail you the AT&T
    High Seas Radiotelephone service guide.
    

    I had exactly the same question  as .0 .
    But so far, not the right answer.
    
    If you have an SSB radio on board, you need a book with all the
    frequencies of all stations. I usually had the book from the german
    office for shipping. This is a very expensiv and uggly book. It
    was printed  some years ago and every month there is an update
    to it. The monthly update is very expensiv. So I ordered a "new"
    one and received again exactly the same book as I already had, but
    with 3 years of monthly updates. I took me a week, to fill in all
    the loose pages. Now, one year later, its out of date again and it
    is not possible to backorder  the missing monthly updates.
    
    I'm looking now either for the british or american equivalent book.
    It should contain all marine shortwave SSB (2MHz-25MHz) frequencys and
    station working hours worldwide. The NP XXXX number would be ok.
    I know, there is from the ITU in Geneva a book with the frequencys
    of all radiostations in the world. But I need the nautical book.
    There is more information, like primary channel etc....

    Along the lines of HF marine communications, could someone list the
    frequencies and channel designations for the high frequency marine eg.
    6A, 6B etc.  I would like to tune in on them with my short wave
    receiver while on land.
    
    Thanks,
    
    	Howard

    If you send me your mail address, I will send you the ITU 1991 channel
    assigment. 196 channels in total, with split frequencies.
    
    (a lot to type in .... )
