A 150-gram PLB designed for dinghy and RIB use transmits GPS, Galileo, and GLONASS position data to satellites on 406 MHz and includes a 121.5 MHz homing frequency — the same specifications as full-size EPIRBs.1:06 Leon Schulz reviews the Jotron unit as a compact alternative to a full EPIRB when exploring by small boat, snorkeling, or scuba diving, where a handheld VHF has limited range over rocks and a cell phone fails with wet fingers.0:13 The device requires no subscription, floats if dropped overboard, and carries an 11-year battery life.1:41 Activation requires removing a cover, pressing a red button, and extending the antenna vertically; it then transmits for 24 hours directly to the Maritime Rescue Coordinating Center (MRCC) with no third-party relay.2:05 A self-test function runs at three seconds for a short test (monthly) or seven seconds for a long test (every three months).1:30 The unit also supports the return link service — a confirmation light indicating the signal has been received — available only on the newest-generation devices.2:31 Registration is required but free.1:48
