Yes. They are already aware of TracMe’s Ch1 trail radio signal technology – the same FRS/GMRS frequency used in more than 100 million trail radios throughout the United States, Australia and elsewhere in the world (CB UHF Emergency Channel 5, 476.525 Australia, FRS Ch.1 462.5625 USA & Canada, PMR Ch.8, 446.09375 Europe). TracMe is notifying search and rescue groups through their professional associations, advertising and editorial channels. Our team has begun a free Field Demo Kit loan program so search and rescue teams can train using our equipment, can download online information from TracMe.com to demonstrate direction finding techniques using their own equipment, or use the techniques with common trail radios from TracMe’s search and rescue resources section of TracMe.com.
