[QUOTE="Robo, post: 668702, member: 31043"] Personal Locator Beacon. Like an EPIRB but for use on land. Means if I fall in a ditch and break my leg in the middle of nowhere, I don't have to wait three days for the next Pilgrim to come along and find me ;) Kind of makes sense, in my mind at least. Someone will now tell me the VdlP is not THAT Remote! :oops: Oh. What's an EPIRB? A distress beacon used by boats and planes. Only to be used in a life and death emergency. Once activated it sends a signal via satelite to the National emergency services. A PLB is a small personal one used by hikers and 'bush walkers'. Means a rescue party can home in on your precise location. Hopefully never required, but my 'boss' will sleep more soundly knowing I have one with me. Only considering it because the VdlP is more remote, and I expect to be walking alone with no other Pilgrims around much of the time. [ATTACH=full]46952[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
