How can the SART's audible tone monitor be used?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — It informs survivors that assistance may be nearby.

The SART emits an audible and visual indicator tone when interrogated by a nearby 9-GHz search radar. This feature directly informs survivors inside the survival craft that a searching vessel or aircraft is actively scanning nearby and assistance is close.
