- Contexto
- If other activities are taking place on scene, additional frequencies may be used for the necessary communications. If a helicopter, for example, needs to winch to or from a ship, these two units should switch to a mutually compatible frequency not already in use, returning to the main working frequen- cies after the winching operation is complete. Another example would be a search being conducted as part of the overall SAR operation. In this case, the units assigned to the search will switch to a mutually compatible frequency controlled by a search co-ordinator. This co-ordinating unit reports to OSC or RCC, as appropriate.
- The helicopter crew member puts the person into the sling and conducts the winching operation.
