mt401 emergency beacon MT401
Buy $695 Including Free Registration

The GME MT401 406 MHz digital EPIRB is the culmination of three years of extensive R & D by GME engineers. The end result is a radical new design concept that is not only a significant improvement on existing beacon performance, but dramatically slashes the cost of 406 MHz EPIRB ownership.

The MT401 also includes a water activation feature. Once it has been removed from its mounting bracket, the MT401 will activate automatically on immersion in water. Of course you can also activate it manually if required.

Advantages of a 406 MHZ EPIRB over the older analogue EPIRB's include world wide coverage, position location accuracy to within 5 km's and a more stable transmitted signal resulting in faster response time. Most importantly, the addition of a unique digitally coded message provides Search and Rescue authorities with vital information including the country of beacon registration and identification of the vessel in distress thus greatly reducing the incidence of false alerts and unnecessary deployment of valuable rescue resources.

An auxiliary homing transmitter is included in the MT401 to enable suitable equipped Search and Rescue forces to home on the distress beacon.
