Amateur radio use is strictly prohibited onboard Oceanwide Expeditions vessels due to potential interference with critical emergency and communication systems. Under specific conditions, amateur radio may be used on shore with prior approval from the Master of the vessel and the Expedition Leader. The Oceanwide Expeditions’ head office must also be notified in advance of any plans to use amateur radio. Users must hold the appropriate permits, operate on approved frequencies at low power, and ensure no interference with vessel or shore operations. For full details on requirements and restrictions, please refer to the information file that is available on request.
