Calls from the ship are similarly made from either the Radio Room or from the remote location. Facsimile messages make use of a voice channel. Both incoming and outgoing facsimiles are handled in the familiar manner as used ashore. All business traffic will be charged to the scientist's project. All personal traffic must be charged on a credit card or be made collect.
Incoming traffic is paid by the originator.
The ship's station will not accept collect or reverse charge calls. These rates apply to messages originating ashore as well as aboard ship. Daily radio contact is made with the Woods Hole base station at 0930 local Woods Hole time. Routine radio contact is limited to working week days. Under special operating conditions arrangements can be made to establish a radio schedule other than the above.
