Obviously though, the deeper the transmitter is in water, the weaker the signal, the closer the search crews will need to be to locate it.

How deep will the signal still work though?
The Senegal Government is saying that they have found some wreckage in their waters and that they believe that most of the plane is now at the bottom of the sea, the area they say it is in is at least 4,000 meters.
That’s pretty deep, could the signal still work that far down?
