STEP ONE - REGISTERING YOUR BEACON
Why is registration important?
As the owner of this 406 MHz beacon, it is mandatory that you register
it with the PLB national authority of your country: It is the law.
Please
note that all 406 MHz beacons are required to have their registration
updated every two years by the owner.
HOW REGISTRATION WORKS:
All 406 MHz beacons transmit a Unique Identifier Number (UIN) when
activated. This UIN is programmed into the beacon based on the
country in which the beacon is registered, thus authorities are able to
determine which country’s database will have your registration
information. SAR forces will have information as to who you are as the
owner of the beacon, the name and type of vessel that you have (if
applicable), your address, and who to contact that might know of your
current situation - but only if your beacon has been properly registered.
Valuable search and rescue resources are wasted every year
responding to false alerts, and registering your beacon helps to resolve
this quickly.
Your personalized ID code
programmed inside each beacon is
transmitted to Search and Rescue
(SAR). SAR forces use this code to pull
up your registration to find out valuable
information about who needs help.
YOUR RESCUE WILL
BE DELAYED IF YOUR
BEACON ISN’T PROPERLY
REGISTERED!
