Channel 16 is the Naval equivalent. In North America you will occasionally hear two idiots using it to have a conversation here and there until the Coast guard dispatcher joins in and asks them what their emergency is (which usually promptly shuts them up)
In a place like the Indian Ocean however, it is non-stop chaos. It is the audio version of an unmoderated public chatroom and sounds exactly how you'd expect.

Man, the coast guard really doesn't fuck around does it?

They're the most feared US military branch

Sounds exactly like what I'd be doing if I was a pilot 🤣

Interesting, this is super common on the railway too. I guess it's just a radio thing.
-
ig if you give people anonymous communication they will meow about it
-
I wonder if ancient civilizations experienced this as well? Like a courier shows up with a scroll that just says "meow" with a doodle of a cat.

It's not really that anonymous though. I was looking into it and you can trace a radio signal back to someone's home. But in the sense that it isn't transmitting your phone and name I guess it's kinda anonymous, but then you have to state your call sign which might be traceable.
Edit: I don't even have a ham license so everything I said is based on very superficial knowledge coming out of my ass.

Not me. I swear.
Local EMS agency. Everyone is supposed top monitor the radio at all times. A unit gets assigned to a minor injury at City Hall. The unit goes on an on-air rant about how the Mayor is a giant asshole, the city is corrupt, and he is going to kick some asses when he gets to City Hall. Then he suddenly says "Oops, did I leave the radio on?"
