The user MMSI is a unique nine digit number, similar to a personal telephone number. It is
used on marine transceivers that are capable of using DSC (Digital Select Calling).
If you don’t have a user MMSI contact the appropriate authorities in your country. If you’re
unsure who to contact, consult your Lowrance dealer.
• A Group MMSI begins with 0 followed by 8 numeric digits (0xxxxxxxx)
• A Coast Station MMSI begins with 00 followed by 7 numeric digits. You just need to add
the 7 digits and the radio will add the beginning 00 for you
