Every year on April 6th, we celebrate 406 Day to raise awareness about the life-saving technology of 406 MHz distress beacons.
These devices use satellite networks to send emergency signals when people are in distress, helping rescue teams respond quickly and effectively.
Since September 1982, the Cospas-Sarsat System has helped rescue at least 65,000 people during 20,000 search and rescue events.
Whether you’re at sea, in the air, or exploring remote areas, carrying a properly-registered 406 MHz beacon could save your life.
✅ Spread the word. Stay prepared. Save lives.
