Modulation scheme for emergency radio beacons aids searchers by indicating kind of vehicle in distress. Transmitted signal similar to present standard signal of emergency locator transmitters (ELT's) and emergency position-indicating radio beacons (EPIRB's) but also includes periods of unmodulated carrier.
