Hello,

This is my first post on ETS. I've tried searching the forums for my question but haven't found anything so if there is an existing thread for this please let me know. I've also read the ultimate PLB FAQ as well and did not find a suitable answer.

I'm looking to purchase a PLB. My primary outdoors activity is snowmobiling in MI Upper Peninsula and the rockies (yellowstone/wyoming). This year I'm looking to sled near Hearst ON, CA.

My question: Can I purchase a US PLB and register it for use with NOAA and also register with CA?

Also, any PLB recommendations (brand/model) would be appreciated. Cold weather use and long operating time when activated are my priorities. I'm not so concerned about size or cost and I also carry an iridium sat phone.

Thanks in advance,

Craig
