ELT Rescue Antenna

121.5 _ 225-300 _ 406 (1Y18300) MPDP121.5-243-406

The ELT Rescue Antenna is used to aid in detection and location of people in emergency situations where reliability is needed most.

When attached to the transmitting radio, the system provides an interface with worldwide offered service of Cospas-Sarsat, the international satellite system for search and rescue (SAR).
