What are marine radio repeater channels?

Marine radio repeater channels serve to extend the communication range for vessels by re-transmitting VHF (Very High Frequency) radio signals.

Placed strategically along coastlines or in areas with challenging topography, these repeaters help overcome obstacles that may obstruct direct communication.

This enhances maritime safety, allowing vessels to maintain contact with shore-based facilities or other vessels over longer distances and in areas with limited line-of-sight radio coverage.
