== Overview == Balto Beacon connects to your Loko hardware and can show live positions of multiple dogs on a map, while also relaying those positions to your team's shared CalTopo map so incident command and other field teams can see them too. {{ambox | type = notice | text = '''Operational limitations:''' Balto Beacon is a supplemental tracking aid. It depends on GPS signal, LoRa radio range, and Bluetooth connectivity, all of which can be affected by terrain, weather, and battery state. It does not replace standard SAR communication, navigation, and safety protocols. }}
