🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between frequency in GHz and named frequency bands (like S‑band, X‑band, etc.) • Typical operating band of search and rescue transponders (SARTs) used with radar on ships and survival craft • Distinction between EPIRB 406 MHz distress beacons and radar SARTs

💭 Think About

• Which device is being asked about here: a radar transponder that responds to ship’s radar, or a satellite distress beacon? • Which general part of the radar spectrum is normally used for marine navigation radars that interact with SARTs? • Among the choices, which one matches the standard radar band used for locating survival craft on a ship’s radar display?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear whether the question is about radar SART or satellite EPIRB – they are different systems • Recall that 406 MHz is associated with COSPAS‑SARSAT distress beacons, not radar SART responses • Confirm which radar band (in GHz range) is commonly associated with SART operation and marine X‑band radar
