Has anybody used an ACR Rescqlink PLD before or one similar? Or do you own one. I like the appeal of it notifying search and rescue of an emergency without charging me a subscription fee. I called my local search and rescue, and the sheriff there took the time to research how it works for me. When you hit the "help" button it sends a signal to the SAR satellite network with your GPS location. That message gets relayed to US mission Control, they then send it to Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida, who then contacts the local search and rescue. Sounds convoluted, but the Florida deputy said it works very well.
With the ACR there is also the ability to send a message to loved ones for a subscription fee, however it is not required to subscribe to send the help signal.
