STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE CIRCULAR_MARINE A radio station, which need not necessarily be manned, the emissions of which, radiated around the horizon, enable its bearing to be determined by means of the radio direction finder of a <VESSEL>; circular marine. 2 PR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:1]  
STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE COASTAL_PROVIDING_QTG A coastal radio station that is prepared to provide QTG service (to transmit upon request from a <VESSEL>, a radio signal, the bearing of which can be taken by that <VESSEL>). 3 IR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:6] [FACC, Annex B, ROS:6]
STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE CONSOL_BEACON A type of long-range position fixing radio <BEACON>; CONSOL beacon. 4 IR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:4] [FACC, Annex B, ROS:4]
STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE DIRECTIONAL_BEACON A special type of radio <BEACON> station, the emissions of which are intended to provide a definite track for guidance; directional beacon. 5 PR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:2]  
STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE RADIO_DIRECTION_FINDING A radio station intended to determine only the <DIRECTION> of other stations by means of transmission from the latter; radio direction finding. 6 PR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:5]  
STD
2005/06/07
RADIO_STATION_TYPE ROTATING_PATTERN_BEACON A special type of radio station <BEACON> emitting a beam of RF waves to which a uniform turning movement is given, the bearing of the station being determined by means of an ordinary listening receiver and a stop watch; rotating pattern beacon. A rotating pattern beacon is also known as a rotating pattern radio beacon or a rotating loop radio. 7 IR [S57A, Attribute, CATROS:3] [FACC, Annex B, ROS:3]

  • cyan - a deprecated entry that was originally either in the standard or was added to the register, but has since been deprecated

The following icons are used to identify items that have figures, modifications and/or clarification notes:

  • F n - has Figures and, if more than one figure, n figures
  • M - has Modifications
  • C - has Clarifications
