It is not clear to me why you would want to change the channel. All
information is transmitted on both channels. If you were to change
the channel on a one channel unit you would be likely to miss it,
whereas if you receive constanmtly on a single channel you will
eventually get all of the data that is being transmitted in your vicinity.
Because ship characteristics are only transmitted once every six
minutes, a two channel receiver is desirable, to make sure you get
that in time to do something about it.
Best,
Steve
