Inmarsat C services via Perth Inmarsat Land Earth Station to close March 1, 2007


Inmarsat C services via the Australian Inmarsat LES at Perth will close on March 1, 2007

Ships that previously used Perth for submitting (free) AUSREP position reports to AusSAR will now use Station 12 in Holland - station code 212 for the Pacific Ocean Region and station code 312 for the Indian Ocean.

A new special access code 1243 has been introduced for sending free AUSREP reports via Station 12.

MSI broadcasts will not be effected.
