PLB questions - 05/11/03 03:45 PM
Hi all.
In Dougs (great) article on PLB's, he says that they have just recently become legal in the USA.
1)Why were previously illegal, or did i misinterpret the information?
2)Could a 406MHz PLB (I really don't know what i am talking about <img src="images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />) be used outside of the US, or are there different emergency frequencies around the globe?
3)Is there a website that explains (in laymans terms) the technicalities of PLBs?
thanks for your help!
