I have published my initial evaluation of the new McMurdo Fast Find PLB. Efforts to put together a full-on evaluation of the new Fast Find in the same manner and under the same conditions as we have tested PLBs in the past have been frustrated by our inability to raise the funds necessary. The economy definitely is hurting our ability to conduct this sort of large scale and expensive testing. In doing this, we attempted to conduct meaningful abbreviated testing in, literally, our own backyard, that would stress the PLB adequately to the point that it would show up any significant issues and, hopefully, provide us a reasonable level of confidence in the new Fast Find.

Is the new Fast Find worth betting your life on? We've got the answer:
