Title: Nasa AIS Receiver and GPSNavX
#9
Quote:You need the MMSI number so that you can DSC VHF radio the vessel if you're in a potential collision situation...

Have any of you actually entered a MMSI number into your radios and communicated wtih the vessel? I believe most communication is still originated with vessel name or call sign.

I doubt many will go to the trouble to connect their VHF radios to their Mac's (Yet another USB port needed) even if there is a NMEA command to contact via a MMSI number.
