As for compatibility, all beacons (for the last 20-odd years, at
least) use the 457MHz frequency, so there should be no issues
whatsoever with searching for older models or vice versa.


Just a small correction, the frequency that is widely used is 457 kHz
not MHz.


I just _knew_ I'd get it wrong. Could have spent the extra 30 seconds
to google it, but CBA.
