Experimental aircraft and regular general aviation aircraft are still using the 121.5 MHz emergency locator transmitters. The FAA has not mandated the use of 406 MHz beacons so 121.5 MHz is still legal foe use in aircraft. The best thing about this is that 121.5 MHz is very cheap compared to the new 406 MHz emergency locator transmitter. Ameri-King makes one of the best selling 121.5 ELTs in the market.
