SAR & Law Enforcement to locate and decode COSPAS-SARSAT
DETAIL
The RT-400 is a portable direction finder, designed for search and rescue operations (SAR), law enforcement and
localizing of radio interference sources.Due to its wideband, the system allows homing to any radio transmitter with a frequency between 118 and 470 MHz including all emergency frequencies such as 121.5, 243 and 406 MHz
(COSPAS-SARSAT). The DF system uses a tablet with a compass and GPS. The DF-Scout software allows displaying
and saving bearing lines on the moving map as well as localizing beacons by triangulation.
