can you verify for

the newer 406 MHz units?

In case others want to know the answer to this, I've been
informed it was a standard C91a 121.5/243 MHz unit. That
gives me some comfort, since that is the type of ELT I have
in my Ventus. In fact, the reason I bought it was after
getting low in a remote area on the same ridges where
Peter's accident occurred.

Additonal Info:
Peter's ELT is one of the later style that uploads info to satellite so
there was a positive ID. Very useful in knowing it was a real event.
