The Dukane 42A12/1 Ultrasonic Test Set is a portable, battery-operated handheld device to perform the operational tests on the underwater locator beacons (ULBs) quickly and easily without having to remove the beacon from the aircraft. This unit performs as a heterodyne receiver covering 30 through 45 kHz, where maintenance personnel can hear beacon operation for functionality.

The 42A12/1 went on to become the most common ultrasonic beacon tester in aviation maintenance and was instrumental in testing Dukane DK100, DK120, DK130 and DK140 series underwater locator beacons.
