[PUP] Reminder on EPIRBs

[LA Licata]

The US Coast Guard issued a press release reminding the maritime  
community that, effective February 1, 2009, the COSPAS-SARSAT  
satellites will no longer monitor the 121.5/243 MHz signal  
transmitted by older Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons  
(EPIRBs).  Mariners are strongly encouraged to replace them with the  
newer 406 MHz EPIRBs, which offer greatly improved performance.  
(12/31/08).
