ROC(M) DSC
The Restricted
Operator Certificate (Maritime) with DSC Endorsement.
$115.00 +
tax S & H additional
The ROC(M) is a Canadian Federal Government issued certificate that allows you to
operate a marine VHF radio.
The ROC(M) is required by anyone using a marine VHF radio or other marine radios.
Every person on the boat who will use the radio needs their own card.
There are significant fines if you are found using a VHF or marine radio without
your card.
All new VHF radios have a DSC function that will greatly enhance rescue
personnel's ability to assist you in an emergency. Understanding this technology and how to operate it can, in
some circumstances, mean the difference between life and death.
In addition, if you received your ROC(M) card before the new Digital Selective
Calling was introduced, then you are encouraged to get your DSC endorsement for your ROC card.
