NEW FEATURES: The new SARLink and AquaLink personal locator beacons from ACR have the option to send a message letting someone know you are "OK". This is a great advance over the older units that did not have this capability. This "message" service can be used with the new VIEW series of personal locator beacons from ACR. The non-View series have the ability to send a message but it is limited in what can be sent, and how many messages can be sent. The View series can send a massage (you preset on the website) to any cell phone via text and an email address. The people receiving this message can see that you are OK and can also your exact location (latitude and longitude) listed on a map. This is an excellent feature to have when away from an area with no cell phone coverage. Service cost for messaging $40 to $60/year depending on basic or premium service package. This unit will work with OR without purchasing the messaging service.

The NEWEST PLB from ACR and soon to be the best selling PLB in the world. Head out with confidence. With three levels of integrated signal technology — GPS positioning, a powerful 406 MHz signal and 121.5 MHz homing capability — the SARLink™ quickly and accurately relays your position to a worldwide network of Search and Rescue satellites, reducing search time and increasing your chances of survival. It’s reliable signaling technology that has saved more than 25,000 lives since 1982.

The SARLink™ broadcasts a unique registered distress signal that not only tells rescuers where you are, but who you are. The onboard GPS can fix your position to within 100 meters and then utilizes a powerful 406 MHz signal to relay your distress call to orbiting SAR satellites. As local Search and Rescue is deployed, a separate homing signal and integrated LED strobe light guide rescuers to your location.

The SARLink is light in weight and small enough to be easily carried in a pack or pocket by skiers, hikers, hunters, kayakers, climbers, pilots, snowmobilers or any other outdoor enthusiast. Performing a full functional self test of the PLB’s internal circuitry, battery voltage & power, and 406 MHz transmission gives you the peace of mind knowing your PLB will work the moment you need it to the most. ACR Exclusive: Built-in GPS acquisition test mode allows you to test GPS functionality up to 12 times over the life of the battery life.
