TL:DR
-Electronics, magnets, heated/foil line clothes near your beacon are bad.
-They need to be at least 20cm away from your transmitting beacon, and 50 cm away when you're performing a search.
-When using radios or cell phones to call for help, stay at least 50 cm away from anyone who is searching.
-Professional digital VHF radios need to be at least 1 m away.
-Don't search while on or within 3 m of a snowmobile.
