Description
 


ACR Resqlink+ PLB in excellent condition, just carried a few times in my pack. Can be used offshore or on land to alert the emergency services if your location in an emergency. Includes self test function. Registered to me in summer 2016 but includes all the paperwork to re-register to you, really easy to do. Massive pop out antenna ideal for use in woods and valleys. Small and mighty, the ResQLink+™ is a buoyant, GPS-enabled rescue beacon designed for anglers, pilots and backcountry adventurers. The ResQlink+ broadcasts a unique registered distress signal with a GPS fix on your position. A Powerful 406MHz frequency signal relays the information via search and rescue satellites. Rescue teams then use your registration information to confirm it’s a real emergency and then use a separate homing signal on 121.5MHz emitted by the beacon to reach your location. A built-in strobe light provides visibility during night rescues. To activate, just deploy the antenna and press the ON button. With its powerful 66-channel GPS, the ResQLink+™ guides rescuers to within 100 meters or less of your position. And, in the continental U.S., search and rescue personnel are typically alerted of your position in as little as five minutes with a GPS-enabled PLB such as the ResQLink+™. The PLB needs registering, with HM Coastguard. 5 Watts of broadcast power. Test feature. Strobe light when activated.  Supplied with a lanyard. Dimensions: 4.1 x 4.8 x 11.4cm Weight: 153g Made in the USA by ACR Electronics Inc.
