> 3 dayCarters is my go-to sleepwear for my babies! Their fleece sleep sacks are perfect for cold nights, and my kids would sleep twice as long if they kept warm through the night. The Sweet Roses pattern is a darling vintage pattern perfect for my baby girls. Well be using this for a long time to come.

> 3 dayWe bought this cover to replace the existing car seat cover that we used for our three previous boys. This cover made the car seat look like it was brand new. The baby loves it and she has no problems falling asleep in it. The cover itself feels extremely plush and smooth, like a teddy bear. It was so easy to install that my wife didnt even ask me to do it.

Greater than one weekIf you are a Charming Tails collector, or if you have ever made cookies with your kids during the holidays, you will appreciate this figure. The faces of all the mice are very expressive, and the activity brings back a lot of happy holiday memories. I was very pleased with the quality and detail present in this piece.

21-04-2025I have received this product on a very cold day and it looked like frozen. After an hour in a room temperature, it was ready to use. I use it on my face and it is unbelievable. I am 40 years old but even my mother in law tried it and loved it. I definitely recommend this product to all age groups, you can use it to your hair too.

How An EPIRB or PLB Rescue Works
The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 1
When activated, EPIRBs and PLBs send a unique distress signal on the 406 MHz frequency to the Search and Rescue Satellites.
Each beacon is programmed with and sends a unique digital code called a HEX ID or Unique ID. The HEX ID identifies the type of beacon and, Search and Rescue use the HEX ID to identify the beacon registration information provided by the beacon owner.
This information can include: who the beacon owner is, the type of vessel the beacon is associated with (for EPIRBs), emergency points of contact, float plans, trip plans, and much more.
The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 2
After the satellite receives a beacon signal, it relays the signal to ground stations referred to as local user terminals (LUTs).
The LUT processes the data, computes the location of the distress beacon, and transmits a decoded alert message to its associated national Mission Control Center (MCC). This happens almost instantaneously after the initial beacon signal is received.
The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 3
The Mission Control Center then geographically sorts the data, and transmits a distress message to the closest appropriate SAR authority and another MCC if the beacon is registered to another country.
The RCC (Rescue Coordination Center) investigates the beacon alert and launches rescue assets to find the parties in distress.
Rescue Overview
- 406 MHz Distress Call Is Activated
- Search and Rescue (SAR) satellites forward distress signal down to earth Ground Stations
- Ground stations forward the distress to the Mission Control Centers (MCC)
- The MCC alerts the closest Rescue Coordination Centers (RCC)
- The RCC call emergency contacts and dispatch the closest SAR teams
- SAR teams arrive on scene and rescue survivors
- Worldwide – Over 48,000+ people rescued since 1982
