🔍 Key Concepts

• EPIRB (Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon) purpose and use • The international distress frequencies used for EPIRBs (Cospas-Sarsat system) • Who typically monitors global distress frequencies at sea

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is an EPIRB designed mainly for local listeners (like normal radio) or for worldwide rescue coverage? • Which of the options actually has the continuous, automatic coverage needed to pick up a beacon signal from anywhere in the world? • Think about how a signal from a life raft in mid-ocean would realistically reach rescue authorities.

✅ Before You Answer

• Recall that modern Category I EPIRBs are part of the GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System). • Verify which system is specifically designed to detect and locate 406 MHz distress beacons worldwide. • Eliminate any options that depend on ordinary broadcasting or casual listening, rather than a dedicated search-and-rescue infrastructure.
