USPS DML “MMSI” Video Debuts
In February, United States Power Squadrons’® (USPS) Digital Media Library (DML) Will Become America’s Boating Channel™.
Raleigh, NC, November 21, 2017 --(PR.com)-- The United States Power Squadrons® (USPS) announces the debut of its streaming media video focused on “Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI)” in its Digital Media Library (DML), which can be found online at uspsdml.org and as a free mobile app available at Apple’s App Store and Google Play.
The new “MMSI" video shows how a DSC-VHF marine radio programmed with a unique nine-digit MMSI code can help provide for safer boating by taking the “search” out of “search and rescue” in an emergency situation on the water.
Viewers will learn why having an MMSI is necessary to utilize the digital selective calling (DSC) feature of their radios for automated distress hailing, plus how to register and obtain an MMSI at no charge, how to program an MMSI into their handheld or permanently mounted DSC-VHF marine radio, and how to use it in case of an emergency.
The USPS DML will change its name to America’s Boating Channel™ in February 2018 along with the debut of a series of more than a dozen new safe-boating videos.
The “MMSI” video is also being distributed by USPS DML through popular social media including Facebook and YouTube. All digital media in the library is offered at no charge.
The USPS Digital Media Library is produced under a grant from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund administered by the US Coast Guard.
The United States Power Squadrons is the premier boating organization dedicated to “Safe Boating through Education” since 1914. USPS is America’s Boating Club™ for boaters, by boaters.
The USPS DML has as its partner BoatUS and is cosponsored by Discover Boating with a contribution from Weems & Plath.
