VHF radio operator’s license for inland waterway radio
The VHF radio operator's license (UBI) is an official certificate and authorizes the operation of VHF radio systems in inland waterway radio. If a radio system is on board a boat or ship, the driver must hold a UBI radio operator's license. In practice, the VHF radio operator's license is a valuable aid. For example, for calling for help, when entering locks, for agreeing a course with other boats or yachts, making contact with other ship radio stations or arranging a berth with the harbor master.
