§  80.1107   Test of radiotelephone station.

   Unless the normal use of the required radiotelephone station
   demonstrates that the equipment is operating, a test communication on a
   required or working frequency must be made each day the ship is
   navigated. When this test is performed by a person other than the
   master and the equipment is found to be defective, the master must be
   promptly notified.
