This beacon can be spotted anywhere in the world and at any time. In addition, the 121.5 MHz aircraft frequency provides a homing frequency in the final phase or rescue search.

The Kannad beacons with an integral GPS receiver provide a higher precision and a faster detection time than the location already supplied by the 406 MHz frequency
