"Personal
EPIRB"

406 MHz P-EPIRB with
Integral GPS or GPS Interface |
-
Transmits
on 406 MHz via the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite system with
your registered unique, digitally coded distress signal and 121.5MHz
(SAR local homing frequency).
-
O nboard
GPS (P/N 2797.4 only) acquires LAT/LON when the unit is activated,
your LAT/LON is transmitted as soon as acquired providing
rescue agencies with your exact position to within 100 meters
(110 yards).
-
GPS
Interface (NMEA 0183) allows you to download your GPS
coordinates from a hand-held GPS receiver into
your P-EPIRB; 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.
-
Smallest
and most functional P-EPIRB available so it can be easily carried
in a pack or on a life jacket; small enough to wear on deck by
yachting racers, crew, solo cruisers, or any
marine enthusiast
-
Removable
holster provides functionality, style and protection for your
P-ELT; holster allows for multiple mounting options on backpacks,
webbing, and life vests.
-
Full
functional self test of internal circuitry, battery power, 406 MHz
transmission, and GPS* acquisition (*P/N
2797.4 only).
-
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.
