This company makes a 406 Mhz ELT with built-in GPS that connects to the aircraft electrical system so that the GPS always has an up-to-date location; it doesn't need to acquire its location after the crash.
I installed one and it failed the GPS part of its self-test; the other self-test details passed. I called the company and they had a few suggestions, but none of them resulted in passing that part of its check. They sent me a replacement ELT and antenna immediately, and requested that I return my original ones. I had not yet even registered my system.
I installed the new units today and everything checks out nicely.
Great service from friendly, concerned people.
