Features:
Transmits on 406 MHz via the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite system with your registered unique, digitally coded distress signal and also on 121.5 MHz (SAR homing frequency)
Onboard GPS (Model 2797.4 only) acquires LAT/LON when the unit is activated, your LAT/LON are 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 ship's GPS receiver into your P-EPIRB; when activated, your LAT/LON will accompany your 406 MHz signal on the first burst, dramatically saving time for your distress message to reach local rescue centers
