Owners in the USA please note this important information: PLB beacon registration is now
available online. This is the preferred method of registration; visit www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov
and follow the instructions on-screen.
Other Information: At present, NOAA still accepts registration by mail or fax. The registration forms are
pre-printed with the correct mailing address and fax number. A registration form may be down- loaded from
the website given above. However you register the beacon, you will be sent a decal which must be attached
to the beacon.
Emergency Contact: It is VITAL that the Emergency Contact information is accurate, particularly
regarding the telephone number, as this will be used to validate an alert. Only if the beacon registration
and approximate location details can be confirmed will USCG (United States Coast Guard) launch an
immediate rescue, otherwise there will be a delay whilst further alerts from the same source are received
and verified.
False alert: In event of a false alert call the US Air Force Rescue Coordination Center at 1-800-8513051.
