Each beacon is programmed with and sends a unique digital code called a HEX ID or Unique ID. The HEX ID identifies the type of beacon and, Search and Rescue use the HEX ID to identify the beacon registration information provided by the beacon owner. This information can include: who the beacon owner is, the type of vessel the beacon is associated with (for EPIRBs), emergency points of contact, float plans, trip plans, and much more. After the satellite receives a beacon signal, it relays the signal to ground stations referred to as local user terminals (LUTs). The LUT processes the data, computes the location of the distress beacon, and transmits a decoded alert message to its associated national Mission Control Center (MCC). This happens almost instantaneously after the initial beacon signal is received. The Mission Control Center then geographically sorts the data, and transmits a distress message to the closest appropriate SAR authority and another MCC if the beacon is registered to another country. The RCC (Rescue Coordination Center) investigates the beacon alert and launches rescue assets to find the parties in distress. 406 MHz Distress Call Is ActivatedSearch and Rescue (SAR) satellites forward distress signal down to earth Ground StationsGround stations forward the distress to the Mission Control Centers (MCC)The MCC alerts the closest Rescue Coordination Centers (RCC)The RCC call emergency contacts and dispatch the closest SAR teamsSAR teams arrive on scene and rescue survivorsWorldwide – Over 48,000+ people rescued since 1982United States – 9,753 people rescued since 1982 Disclaimer: Note: SHIPPING CHARGES ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE Photos do show reflections Please look at all photos closely as they are part of the description and are of the actual item you will receive.Multiple quantities will result in slight cosmetic differences but will be of similar condition.
