The Improvement of Croatian Coast Radio Stations Service in a Part of Meteorological Warnings Promulgation

U ovom radu prikazana je potreba da se uvedu promjene u obavljanju radijske službe hrvatskih obalnih radijskih postaja (ORP) pri emitiranju pomorskih sigurnosnih informacija (Maritime Safety Information, MSI) – meteoroloških upozorenja o udarima olujnoga vjetra i o pojavi neverina, stanju mora i smanjenoj vidljivosti zbog magle. Na temelju inicijative autorove i stručne službe poduzeća Plovput prema Lučkoj kapetaniji Split, na razini Ministarstva mora, prometa i infrastrukture formirana je radna skupina pa je usuglašen kriterij učestalosti emitiranja meteoroloških upozorenja. Novim načinom rada, ORP će samostalno, nakon najave kojoj prethodi znak uzbunjivanja radiotelefonijom kategorije SIGURNOST na VHF Ch 16 i pri smanjenoj vidljivosti zbog magle emitiranjem SAFETY ALL SHIPS poziva na VHF DSC Ch 70, meteorološka upozorenja emitirati odmah po primitku, ne čekajući redovit termin emisije vremenskih izvješća, kako bi se informacija što prije proslijedila krajnjim korisnicima i time maksimalno podigla razina sigurnosti u plovidbi.This text shows the necessity of changes in the performance of radio service in Croatian Coast Radio Stations (CRS) broadcast of Maritime Safety Information: weather warnings of gusty stormy wind and appearance of isolated sudden storms and gales, sea conditions and reduced visibility due to fog. Based on the initiative of the author, professional service of Plovput company and Split harbourmaster, Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure formed a working group and criterion of frequency of transmitting weather warnings has been agreed. With the new mode CRS will by itself, after the announcement that precedes the warning safety signal via radio telephone SECURITE on VHF Ch 16 and in the case of reduced visibility due to fog transmission of an urgency message SAFETY ALL SHIPS on VHF Ch 70, broadcast immediately weather alerts upon receipt, without waiting for a regular term of weather reports emission, in order to proceed the information as soon as possible and raise the maximum safety level
