- Product No. 2797.4 GPS Interface and
Internal GPS
- 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).
- Internal GPS (P/N 2797.4)
acquires LAT/LON when the unit is activated (if externally obtained GPS
coordinates are not present), your LAT/LON are transmitted providing
rescue agencies with your exact position to within 110 yards (110 m).
- 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 PLB; carabiner clip allows
for multiple mounting options to backpacks, webbing, and life vests.
- Functional test for battery power, 406
MHz transmission, and GPS acquisition.
- 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, waterproof to 33 ft (11 m).
