GPS Interface
-
Transmits on 406 MHz via the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite system with your registered unique, digitally coded distress signal and 121.5 MHz (SAR homing frequency)
-
GPS interface (NMEA 0183) allows you to download your GPS coordinates from a hand-held GPS receiver into your PLB; when activated, your LAT/LON will accompany your 406 MHZ signal on the first burst, dramatically saving valuable time for your distress message to reach local rescue centers.
-
Without additional handheld GPS input; the satellites, after several passes, pinpoints PLB's location to within a 2.5 miles area.
-
Smallest and most functional PLB available so it can be easily carried in a pack or pocket; small enough to be worn by skiers, hikers, hunters, kayakers, climbers, pilots or any outdoor enthusiast
-
Removable holster provides functionality, style and protection for your PLB; carabiner clip allows for multiple mounting options on backpacks, webbing, and life vests.
-
Full functional self test of internal circuitry, battery power, 406 MHz transmission.
-
Flat, stainless steel antenna wraps compactly around the unit for easy stowage; is easily positioned when needed.
-
Floats to avoid loss if dropped in water, exceeds RTCM waterproof requirements.
