Importance of having 406 MHz Beacon
The 406 MHz Beacon is an important device that should be installed in your boats, ships and flights. You may not know when it is going to help you. The 406 MHz Beacon sends distress signals to the search and rescue authorities so that your whereabouts can be traced quickly and to assure your safety when needed. It is necessary that your 406 MHz Beacon be registered with the NOAA as soon as you install it in your boat or flight. Once you register your 406 MHz Beacon your details will be accessible by the NOAA authorities so that they know from whom the distress signals are coming. The rescue authorities will also call you once you register to confirm your details. Renewal of registration has to be done once in two years so that your details are up to date in the National Beacon Registration Database.
Depending on the location of your 406 MHz Beacon you will be located within minutes of sending the signal. This will guide the rescue authorities to help you in an emergency. You can purchase 406 MHz Beacon from any pilot shop. If you have not yet bought your beacon from a pilot shop it is better to look for that product when you are buying other accessories for your flight. It is important that you give priority to the beacon than the other products for the flight.
