What Does PLB Stand For?
PLB stands for Personal Locator Beacon
A Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) is a portable safety device designed to transmit a distress signal in emergency situations. When activated, a PLB sends out a signal to satellites, which then relay the location information to search and rescue authorities. It is commonly used by outdoor enthusiasts, mariners, and aviators to ensure personal safety in remote or hazardous environments, providing a reliable means of emergency communication and assistance.
