Port Control to monitor Channel 16 until communications restored
The public are requested to note that at present Ascension Island Radio is unable to monitor radio traffic on Channel 16 due to a power outage at the USAF Base.
Work is underway to restore communications with Ascension Island Radio.
In the meantime Port Control will monitor Channel 16 and a sécurité is being sent out to all stations periodically during the day and evening.
As such, members of the public are encouraged to use caution and be mindful of the limitations in radio communications at this time.
