HF-DSC - Digital Selective Calling, Basic Explanation

DSC - Digital Selective Calling. What is it? How does it work? How do you use it?

[@matthewsequoyah2665]

Thanks for your clear & simple explanation of what exactly DSC is. "Teletype over radio, aka long range text messaging" with 5 categories of message.

My choice preference for any long range radio coms is SSB upper or lower sideband traffic seems to go forever given conditions are good

[@SteveWrightNZ]

For message categories other than distress, does the unit share it's GPS location by default? thanks.

[@captainjohn49]

Yes!

[@SteveWrightNZ]

@@captainjohn49 Thats very handy! I've been playing with YaDD and decoding these transmissions at home.

[@RobFomenko]

Good explanation but to much repetition makes it hard to listen to.
