This was an odd enough find in my inbox:

Subject:[UDXF] USCG to discontinue 2 MHz
From:Bruce Portzer (bportzer@comcast.net)
To:dxld@yahoogroups.com; UDXF@yahoogroups.com;

The following message was received during a Navtex broadcast last night.

I suspect there has been little activity on 2182/2187.5 in recent years, 
so I'm not surprised  by the decision.  I had somehow thought the USCG 
had stopped listening some years ago but that was apparently not the case.

ON 01 AUG 2013 THE U.S. COAST GUARD WILL TERMINATE
    RADIO GUARD OF THE INTERNATIONAL VOICE, DISTRESS,
    SAFETY AND CALLING FREQUENCY 2182 KHZ AND THE
    INTERNATIONAL DSC DISTRESS FREQUENCY 2187.5 KHZ.
    MARITIME INFORMATION AND WEATHER BROADCASTS ON
    2670 KHZ WILL TERMINATE CONCURRENTLY. WATCHKEEPING
    CONTINUES ON EXISTING VOICE AND DSC FREQUENCIES
    IN THE 4/6/8/12 MHZ BANDS AS DESCRIBED ON THE
    U.S. COAST GUARD NAVIGATION CENTER WEBSITE.
