  • Called station: Harbour Watch
  • Vessel: Koru Star, ZM00
  • Position: fictional Cape Rimu, 2 NM east
  • Message: delayed by 45 minutes
  • Priority: routine
  • Use voice VHF only

This is independent practice, not an MVOC assessment or certificate. The current MVOC scope excludes DSC and SSB; international operators should confirm the appropriate official MSROC or MRROC pathway.
