Welcome to the 457 Project.
457kHz is the frequency that all avalanche transceivers use to find
one another. This frequency is universal and effective.
Without someone who
knows how to use the transceiver the 457 frequency is powerless to find the
buried person. The transceiver must be used in the right circumstance and with the
right method in order to be effective...this takes training and practice.
Christians have discovered the life-giving, universal Gospel of Jesus Christ. We
have tasted of the hope, life and freedom that is found in knowing Jesus. It is our
responsibility to pass this gift on to others in a way that they can understand. We
need to know how to share this life-saving frequency in our culture.
