Click on a question below to see the answer. If you have a question about this model that is not answered below, please contact questions@seaerospace.com

The C406-N has built in navigational capabilities. If you intend on using this feature, then the ELT needs to be programmed for long messaging. If you do not require nav capabilities, then the ELT should be programmed with short messaging.

Long messaging operates with a nav interface. If you have a nav interface of some sort, then short messaging programming should be chosen.

Long messaging transmits longtitude and latitude.  Short messaging does not.


In relation to NE (New) parts, many OEMs change their prices and availability without any notice to dealers or the industry. Therefore, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication, we ask that customers contact us for the most accurate price and availability.

In relation to SV & OH parts, the used parts aftermarket in the aviation industry is not an infinite supply. It is a dynamic, constantly changing market that is significantly affected by and susceptible to highs and lows in supply and demand. Therefore, although we attempt to, at times, we are unable to predict the exact moment when an item may be available. Once again, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication on our website, we ask that customers contact us for the most current and accurate price and availability.

The only indication that new ACR/Artex ELTs have the upgraded G-switch as detailed in SB1000 is the "UPGRADED G-SWITCH" box on the identification plate.  Please see image for reference.
