PLB What's a PLB? A Personal Location Beacon From Fast Find
Press Release
Give the Gift of Peace of Mind -- Give the outdoor enthusiast on your gift
list peace of mind and a new measure of safety for when they venture far off
the beaten path. Perfect for those who enjoy extreme sports, hunting or
offshore fishing, the new FastFind Plus Personal Location Beacon (PLB) from
McMurdo keeps you safe and found.
The FastFind Plus is the smallest, lightest and most powerful 406 MHz PLB that features built-in GPS capability.
Measuring less than six inches in length with a weight of nine ounces, it
easily fits into a backpack, gear bag, boat or vehicle.
When activated in an
emergency, the FastFind Plus transmits a satellite distress beacon to
worldwide geo-stationary COSPAS-SARSAT satellites. The signal is then routed
through a ground station to the nearest search and rescue (S&R) authority.
With its built-in GPS, the FastFind is totally self-contained and eliminates
the need for any external plug in connections or additional add-on equipment.
The GPS data provides S&R personnel with exact position and location
information that is accurate to approximately 100 feet anywhere in the world.
The FastFind Plus is waterproof and will even float. It also comes with a
lanyard and carrying case. Available in most sporting goods stores or visit
