Subject: [LML] New ELT
Time to start a new thread. I have not seen any reference to the new
ELT rules that go into effect next year.
Evidently, our current equipment will no longer work ( or perhaps even be
legal) as of Feb 1, 2009.
It is my understanding that we will need something that works on 406 MHz
and transmits GPS coordinates.
I have just begun looking and find units from $500 to $3500. I have
no idea what direction to take.
What is everyone doing? What is the easiest? What is the
cheapest? What is the best?
I have an Artex ELT200 and would really like to have something that
replaces it with minimal time, trouble and expense.
I have even heard that some people are going to portable devices. I
don’t know how that works.
Any input would be appreciated.
