Description
The McMurdo FastFind 220 is a compact 406 MHz personal locator beacon with GPS and Galileo receivers. When activated it sends its unique ID and GNSS position to the Cospas-Sarsat satellite system and transmits a 121.5 MHz homing signal to help local recovery. There are no subscription fees. The lithium battery offers more than 24 hours of continuous operation and a 6-year storage life from the date of manufacture. The PLB itself is Category 2 and will not float unless it is kept in the buoyancy pouch provided. Each unit is supplied with a buoyancy aid, a neck lanyard and a universal belt pouch.
