1 Scope
The present document states the minimum technical characteristics and methods of measurement required for portable
Very High Frequency (VHF) radiotelephones with integrated handheld class D DSC operating in certain frequency
bands allocated to the maritime mobile service using either 25 kHz channels or 25 kHz and 12,5 kHz channels.
The present document also specifies technical characteristics, methods of measurement and required test results.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive)
article 3.3(e), which states that radio equipment within the scope of the present document "…shall be so constructed
that:…. (e) it supports certain features ensuring access to emergency services;….".
In addition to the present document, other European Norms (ENs) that specify technical requirements in respect of
essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [i.1] will apply to equipment within the
scope of the present document.
NOTE: A list of such European Norms is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org/.

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.1]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.4].
ETSI

1 Scope
The present document states the minimum technical characteristics and methods of measurement required for portable
Very High Frequency (VHF) radiotelephones with integrated handheld class D DSC operating in certain frequency
bands allocated to the maritime mobile service using either 25 kHz channels or 25 kHz and 12,5 kHz channels.
The present document also specifies technical characteristics, methods of measurement and required test results.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive)
article 3.3(e), which states that radio equipment within the scope of the present document "…shall be so constructed
that:…. (e) it supports certain features ensuring access to emergency services;….".
In addition to the present document, other European Norms (ENs) that specify technical requirements in respect of
essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [i.1] will apply to equipment within the
scope of the present document.
NOTE: A list of such European Norms is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org/.

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.1]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.4].
ETSI

1 Scope
The present document states the minimum technical characteristics and methods of measurement required for portable
Very High Frequency (VHF) radiotelephones with integrated handheld class D DSC operating in certain frequency
bands allocated to the maritime mobile service using either 25 kHz channels or 25 kHz and 12,5 kHz channels.
The present document also specifies technical characteristics, methods of measurement and required test results.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive)
article 3.3(e), which states that radio equipment within the scope of the present document "…shall be so constructed
that:…. (e) it supports certain features ensuring access to emergency services;….".
In addition to the present document, other European Norms (ENs) that specify technical requirements in respect of
essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [i.1] will apply to equipment within the
scope of the present document.
NOTE: A list of such European Norms is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org/.
