editI just ran across this one, and it needs some help from old-timers; in particular:
- the development of area commstas to replace the old district-by-district radsta system during the '70s, followed by their consolidation (by remote control) in the '90s.
- the end of CW watch
- the development of the VHF Hi-Elevation system in the '70s, now being redesigned as "Rescue 21" [1]
As the radstas are dead and Group (now Sector) VHF is a significant component of the Guard's on-air interface with the public, perhaps this should be renamed "Coast Guard Communications System." It could then also include the movements of RM school from Groton to Governor's Island to Petaluma, plus the amazing home-brewed microcomputer-based SAMPS, which bridged the gap between torn-tape TTY loops in the 1970s and whatever it is they use today, plus the change of the RM rating to TC.

Wrong title
editThis is a description of Vessel identification scheme and general information on USCG communication organisation. But one is missing the the "List_of_United_States_Coast_Guard_radio_stations" - where are they what equippement do they use and how are they named? Would be the information expected under the title. --66.35.157.148 (talk) 22:37, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
Incorrect submission
editCAMSLANT was labeled as (Near Norfolk) which is incorrect. It's located down near Moyock, and is a good hour to 45 minutes South. No reason for it to be labeled as such.
