PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Wanting to buy an EPIRB
I am looking at buying an Epirb for the added safty when in the bay and for when i go cross country sking. Would a personal EPRIB cover me if i went off shore? or would i need to by a normal EPRIB.
What brand should i look at and what features would be handy? I only want to spend around $200. Can you get a better location range then 10nm or 5mn for digital?

The old style EPIRBS are about to become defunct. From 2008 there will be a new style epirb, the MT400, and they will no longer monitor the old epirb frequency. The old style you could get for about $200, the new ones will cost around the $600 mark. At this stage it is hardly worthwhile purchasing one of the old style MT400, as the new system will be in swing before the old ones expiry date.
