June 16,2008, NEW PERSONAL QUALIFICATIONS STANDARD (TelComPQS) A new Personal Qualifications Standard (PQS) for Auxiliary Telecommunications has been developed by the Operations (Response) Department and approved by the National Board and CG Headquarters.The Chief Director of the Auxiliary has announced the implementation of the new personal qualification standard (PQS) for a Telecommunications Operator (TCO) specialty. Effective 1 August 2008, all new applicants for fixed land or land mobile radio facility certification and/or operation must be certified as a TCO. Current AUXCOM-rated members will continue to be eligible for facility ownership and operation indefinitely, as long as their AUXCOM was earned prior to August 1, 2008. Details of this PQS are available on the Chief Director’s Web site at "Auxiliary Telecommunications PQS Announcement 11 June 2008". The PQS for Auxiliary Telecommunications is posted at "Telecommunications PQS".
Auxiliary communications are not bound into a rigidly structured operational system but rather consist of those radio-equipped vessels and aircraft, fixed land stations, land mobile stations and direction finder stations that have been accepted by the Director of the Auxiliary as facilities. The primary purposes of the Auxiliary communications network are:
In general, Auxiliarists will operate radio facilities in conjunction with authorized surface and air missions. They will, at that time, use authorized government frequencies. In order to stand watch at a Coast Guard or an Auxiliary communication facility, a Basically Qualified Auxiliarist must complete either the Auxiliary Communications Specialty Course (or the equivalent), or the Coast Guard Watchstander Qualification Program. Radio FacilityAn Auxiliary radio facility does not require a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) license when operating while assigned to duty or performing a mission directed or scheduled by the U S Coast Guard. A radio facility may be offered for use by an Auxiliarist and, if it meets requirements for that type of facility, it will be accepted by the Director of the Auxiliary. The facility owner must arrange for an initial inspection of the facility and, thereafter, a re-inspection every three years from the date of acceptance for use. Radio equipment used on a surface or air facility is considered and inspected as part of that facility. In general, the operator of a radio facility must maintain radio logs and formal message logs. Under ordinary conditions, Auxiliary radio facilities operate according to the Telecommunications Manual, COMDTINST M2000.3. May 2008 - Calling All U.S.C.G.
