Re: [BVARC] Marine frequency wanted

[Chris Luppens via BVARC]

Channels same everywhere. Look at previous links for assignments.  Channel 16 is monitoring channel for all. Can call Coast Guard there.  Typos Compliments of iPhone Chris Luppens On Jan 16, 2023, at 8:09 PM, Gayle Dotts via BVARC <bvarc@bvarc.org> wrote:  Galveston problem....my beach house is in Gulf Shores Alabama.

Somebody around here likely knows the fun channels to monitor around Port of Houston, Galveston Bay, etc. I think a lot of kayak fishermen just use FRS/GMRS, though they may keep a marine VHF radio in the boat in case they get in trouble on the water...
