Glider crash at Moriarty

121.5 mHz ELT: location accuracy 12000 meters I'm not sure how to interpret this. An ELT (of any flavor) transmits a continuous signal, for as long as the batteries hold out. It can be received at a range much greater than 12 km, and can lead a searcher to within a few meters of the ELT. I took that as how accurately the old satellites could locate a 121.5 Mhz signal. Took several orbital passes.
