A typical emergency locator transmitter (ELT)
- receives 2 frequencies
- transmit 3 frequencies
- transmits 2 frequencies
Explanation from PART66Online
A typical ELT is a transmit-only beacon that radiates on two distress frequencies, traditionally 121.5 and 243.0 MHz, to aid search and rescue homing. It does not receive, and the two-frequency transmission is what allows both civil and military receivers to home on it.
