Test Beacons
- Ocean Medix sells two different test beacons from Tracker Security. Tracker ETX Test Beacon is a constant signal (CW) beacon on 121.775MHz, and the Tracker ELT Test Beacon is a pulsed beacon on 121.600MHz. It is best to purchase the CW version since PLBs ane EPIRBs transmit a CW signal. The pulsed version transmits signal approximately 1/2 second long every two seconds.
