RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] underwater locators

Hi Brian.

We have a system for that with my diving friends.  Tapping the heel of your knife on your tank.

Simple but works a treat.  You can hear it long distance and we have 2 simple codes we all know.

3 taps is just a locator "im OK"

loads of quick repetative taps, "im up shit creek"

it works.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] underwater locators

Hi,
     Does anyone know of a device that would send out a signal underwater
that would aid a diver in locating a fellow diver in poor visibility water?
I was just diving yesterday off Pt Mugu with a friend (last day of lobster
season) and a couple of spots at 30' were very poor vis.  It would be really
nice to be able to locate another diver in that situation.

Brian
