Receivers For Boats Are Now: DSC sets can also transmit an "All Ships" call; this is useful if the individual identity of the vessel being called is not known. Calls can be made to DSC receivers for boats are now in a specific geographic area, or to groups of stations, such as any or all Coast Guard units, or all boats in a cruising group.

An SSB set should be installed by a qualified technician and checked out by a person holding an FCC Commercial Operator License. Radio installations on gasoline-powered boats will generally require some form of ignition-noise suppression or shielding: this is a job for a technician. With regard to maintenance, an unlicensed person is limited to matters that will not affect the quality of the signal on the air. For example, he can replace a blown fuse, but cannot make internal repairs.
11. Do not overfill. The practice of filling until fuel flows from the vents is highly dangerous. Gasoline flowing out of a vent could ignite; gasoline or diesel fuel would pollute the water around the boat.
On The Other Hand See Limited To Boats And Ships the:GPS sets are receivers. As such, they do not transmit signals and do not require licenses. Some models are console-mounted, but more are "hand-held" units, usually used in a bracket. Some are small enough to be a part of a wristwatch! The use of GPS is not limited to boats and ships the system can be used to find the position of aircraft, automobiles, buses and trucks, emergency vehicles, trains, many other means of transportation, and even wilderness hikers. It is widely used in land and marine surveying. New uses continue to be found almost every day. In the near future, cell phones will be GPS equipped so that the location of a 911 emergency call can be pinpointed.
