Product Description
You hope for the best on every trip in the wilderness, but you always plan for the worst. The ACR TerraFix 406 GPS Personal Locator Beacon is the ultimate last resort in the backcountry. The FCC-Approved TerraFix 406 GPS I/O uses its onboard GPS or your handheld unit to fix your position, then transmits a distress signal to the 406 MHz COSPAS-SARSAT system, encoded with your unique identification number and GPS coordinates, so within minutes of you activating the beacon, rescuers know who theyre looking for and where you are to within 110 yards (less if youre using a super-accurate handheld unit.) The TerraFix also emits a 121.5 MHz homing signal that lets Search and Rescue teams get a fix on your precise position. The TerraFix is waterproof and floats for backcountry and nautical use, and is small and light enough to fit into a pocket or keep close at hand in the included holster. There simply isnt a more effective or convenient Personal Locator Beacon in the world. Every ACR TerraFix PLB purchased by 12/31/2004 comes with a coupon for a $50 manufacturer's rebate.
Bottom Line: You will be found.
