New Fastfind 406Mhz with GPS PLB Model 210
FCC Approved
Cospas-Sarsat Certification TAC:194E
Fastfind will transmit a unique emergency message identifier through the Cospas/Sarsat satellite system which can pinpoint your location anywhere on the earth's surface. In most cases, the emergency alert is first received within as little as 5 minutes. Fastfind has a secondary homing transmitter which allows Search and Rescue teams to direction find or home in on it once they get closer to the scene. Fastfind has a battery storage life of 5 years, and once activated will continue to transmit emergency alerts for a minimum of 24 hours. Fastfind also has a unique, built-in SOS flash feature to aid in nighttime rescues.

Fastfind 210 has a built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver to potentially reduce the time for SAR teams to arrive on scene. If the sky view is obscured by tree canopy or a steep-sided canyon, the GPS may take longer, or possibly fail to obtain a position fix. In this case, distress alert may be transmitted without GPS location information.
