The Police told me that my AIS signal is not complete. They saw my MMSI number, but they received an “error R45”. However the easyTRX worked fine. Other sailors saw my data correctly. What happened here?

The error originates from the coast guard’s software.The standard of AIS Class B for pleasure boats has been realized in 2006. We know that some older AIS Class A ships have problems with the Class B transmissions. It is only a matter of time until the older Class A update their software. If the coast guards ask you again about that problem, you can show them the certifications number which you can find in the manual. It is the number BSH / 46162 / 4320638 / 07 and says that the unit is legal.
