Get the confidence that you call for help has been heard. The ResQLink View displays your exact GPS coordinates and lets you know the help is on the way. Activation is simple: deploy the antenna and press the ON button. A 66-channel GPS signal calculates your position within 100 metres. Transmitting your location to first responders to the MEOSAR satellite constellation via the 406Mhz frequency. The beacon also broadcasts a local signal on 121.5 MHz that searchers can pinpoint once they're in your vicinity.
No paid subscription is required. The only additional expense is replacing the battery every 5 years. If you need to use the ResQLink View PLB-425, ACR will replace it with a PLB of equal or greater value in return for the old beacon and your rescue story.
