"Three words: Personal Locator Beacon. Less then $500 and WILL save your life."

Thanks. Given the loss of the CNET guy, I've been scouring the internet for
the best/simplest solution to the "I'm lost, Here I am!, come get me!"
conundrum of being lost in the wilderness.

I'm no survival expert, but having a PLB (personal locator beacon) seems
to be a big part of the solution.
