Adrian,

I have such a system which is used in industry and operates at 77MHz. I do
not believe this is suitable for your area. However, I am currently
developing the same product to run at 916MHz and 433MHz. It will also be a
lot cheaper than the industrial system where a lot of different features are
required. It basically is a person down alarm with duress switch. It is
received at a base station or receiver and an alarm is sounded if the person
goes down or the duress switch is pressed. If more than one person is to be
monitored and over a greater area than about 100 metres radius then it will
need a processor based base station.

If you need further details email me privately.



All the best,



Peter Grey
