Hi there,
Margaret here from the Nautilus Lifeline.
The Nautilus Lifeline will be certified as a VHF radio by FCC and CE and certified for use in most countries around the world.
No base station radio license is required in the US.
No operator license is required in the US.
This information is found directly on the FCC website http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?job=licensing&id=ship_stations.
In 19 years of running liveaboard dive trips in B.C., Alaska and offshore Mexico, we have always been able to recover all our divers (although some have drifted off-site and then been found). Our concern - and the reason we invented this device - is to add one more plank to our safety platform for even better odds. The inventor, Captain Mike Lever of the Nautilus Explorer, welcomes and is seeking all comments and ideas on this. Please contact him at mike@nautilusexplorer.com.
Thank you!
