VHF Chanel 16
In the United States, the safety and distress calling frequency for boats is primarily set at VHF Channel 16 (156.800 MHz). This channel is used for emergency communications, including distress calls and safety announcements. Boat operators are required to monitor this frequency when underway, as it is the primary channel for distress signaling and coordination with the Coast Guard and other vessels in case of emergencies.
It depends on the situation. The international maritimedistress frequency is channel 16, which is 156.80 MHz. The international civilian airband distress frequency is 121.5 MHz.

channel 16 I am a former USCG Radioman. Make sure you are using a marine band radio otherwise the channels do not line up. The frequency you need is 156.800Mhz. Also the you use that for calling also. Then the USCG if it is not a distress call will switch you to a working frequency that is usually ch 22 or 157.100Mhz. Also for hf the frequency is 2182Khz. Used to use 500Khz for Morse code but it is not monitored anymore. This was a real problem when I was stationed in Portland ME as they Canadian Fishing fleet used 22 as its working frequency so they were always stepping on us when we were working on 22.
The Frequency of the actual enumeration of U.S. residents is made within 3 years after the first meeting of congress. The enumeration would be call a Census in today's terms.
The officer was able to help us in our time of distress. She kept flared in her car in case she ever needed a distress signal. In times of sorrow and distress, we can all use a good friend.
basically it a simple transceiver which hold a particular frequency operation . when any body call us it means that dial our number which represent corresponding frequency. and vice versa happens when we called any one.
Any flag flown upside down is a distress signal.
