Simple, you need a transmitted electronic signal in an area that is on coverage. If you do not have both you cannot trace anything.
What complicates this further is if you don't get the area into coverage on time, the signal may die out completely due to battery, even for those like that on the blackbox that require little battery power, and you may never trace anything using the electronic signals.
