Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

If you see that this beacon is being sold from a company named 'Orbital Satcom Corp' - DO NOT BUY IT!! Our satellite registration was rejected when we tried to set up our beacon. We found out from ACR (the manufacturer) and the NOAA that Orbital Satcom Corp is illegally refurbishing beacons from the UK. The beacon will NOT work in the US. I have flagged Orbital Satcom Corp with Amazon but am concerned that more of these illegal beacons may be on the market. My family and I rely on this beacon to save our lives when we are boating & fishing off shore without cell service. To have found out that it was not working while we were offshore is terrifying because we would have not be saved if we had an emergency. Please, please, please do not spend $375 on a lifesaving, emergency product that has been illegally reprogrammed and will not work!
