Foreword
This Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic
compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.4] to
provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation
of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing
Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3].
Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with
the normative clauses of the present document given in tables A.1 and A.2 confers, within the limits of the scope of the
present document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive, and
associated EFTA regulations.
National transposition dates

1 Scope
The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements for VHF radio transmitters and
receivers operating on board ships in frequency bands allocated to the maritime mobile service, used on inland
waterways as defined by Regional Agreements or responsible Administrations.
The present document applies to VHF transmitters and receivers fitted with a 50 Ω external antenna socket or connector
for use on board ships on inland waterways and operating in the bands between 156 MHz and 174 MHz allocated to the
maritime mobile service by the ITU Radio Regulations [1], Appendix 18.
For countries where the Automatic Transmitter Identification System (ATIS) is mandatory, the requirements of annex B
apply as well.
NOTE: The relationship between the present document and essential requirements of article 3.2 and article 3.3(g)
of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.3] is given in annex A.

Mention of those trademarks in the present document does not constitute an endorsement by ETSI of products, services or organizations associated with those trademarks. Foreword This Harmonised European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM). The present document has been prepared under the Commission's standardisation request C(2015) 5376 final [i.4] to provide one voluntary means of conforming to the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3]. Once the present document is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive, compliance with the normative clauses of the present document given in tables A.1 and A.2 confers, within the limits of the scope of the present document, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements of that Directive, and associated EFTA regulations.

ETSI ETSI EN 300 698 V2.3.1 (2018-11) 8 1 Scope The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements for VHF radio transmitters and receivers operating on board ships in frequency bands allocated to the maritime mobile service, used on inland waterways as defined by Regional Agreements or responsible Administrations. The present document applies to VHF transmitters and receivers fitted with a 50 Ω external antenna socket or connector for use on board ships on inland waterways and operating in the bands between 156 MHz and 174 MHz allocated to the maritime mobile service by the ITU Radio Regulations [1], Appendix 18. For countries where the Automatic Transmitter Identification System (ATIS) is mandatory, the requirements of annex B apply as well. NOTE: The relationship between the present document and essential requirements of article 3.2 and article 3.3(g) of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.3] is given in annex A. 2 References 2.1 Normative references References are specific, identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number.
