Ortovox F1 Focus Transceiver – Blue/Silver

The F1 Avalanche beacon is the most widely sold avalanche transceiver worldwide and is a long-standing favourite with professionals. The analogue technique of the f1 focus is completed by a visual search indicator. If you put on the f1 with its lightweight one belt system, the device is automatically switched on. With a range of up to 80m the number of beeps indicate at the same time if you have to face a multiple burial situation. The visual search indicator shaped in an LED arrow doesn't only show the right way, but also when you have to turn the volume control switch for adjusting the receiver sensibility. In case of several buried persons the volume control switch serves to isolate the signals and to ensure an easy and safe search. If you have several searchers, an earphone is highly recommended. In case of a second avalanche you can use the express emergency switch-over from receive to transmit mode. We also strongly recommend that a transceiver must always be accompanied by a shovel and a probe on your tours.
