Ocean Signal rescueME PLB1 Personal Locator Beacon
Product Description
The Ocean Signal rescueME PLB1 Personal Locator Beacon is a compact, high-performance emergency satellite beacon designed to help you summon global search and rescue services when you’re in distress — whether on land, at sea, or in remote wilderness. Its manual activation and retractable antenna make it extremely quick and easy to use under pressure, and its rugged construction is built for harsh environments. Once activated, the PLB transmits your GPS-determined location via the international Cospas-Sarsat satellite network — with no subscription fees — to notify rescue coordination centers that help is needed.
