• How do I register my McMurdo PLB or EPIRB?

  Registration is mandatory. In the US, register with NOAA; internationally, use the IBRD at www.406registration.com or your national authority. Failure to register can delay search and rescue response.

• How often should I test my McMurdo beacon?

  It is recommended to perform a self-test once a month. To conserve battery life, limit GPS/GNSS acquisition tests to a maximum of 10 over the battery's lifetime (refer to your specific manual for model limits).

• Can I replace the battery in my FastFind PLB myself?

  No, battery replacement should be performed by an approved service center. Opening the unit yourself may break the waterproof seal and voids the warranty.

• What is the battery life of a McMurdo FastFind PLB?

  Most McMurdo PLBs have a 6-year storage battery life and provide a minimum of 24 hours of continuous operation when activated.

• Where can I find authorized service agents for McMurdo products?
