| Subject: | Re: FS: SPOT Connect |
I have a spot also, but I use it in the west over some pretty rough the terrain.
I am fairly satisfied with the product except for a few quirks. I send my wife
a spot , "I'm ok message" when I am out in the boomers. I also like to take
it on cruises, but I have found a few voids. It does not work in the Central
Pacific Ocean and is unreliable in Alaska. I sent a few messages in Alaska, and
the unit said that (green light) the message was sent, but it was not sent!
I looked at the new deLorme InReach unit at OSH yesterday, but even with the rebate
of $50 it is $200 and there are VERY high fees like $25 per month plus activation
fees. If you want to suspend service there are other costs. I would
say that except for professional bush flyers or Alaskan travelers, I would hesitate
to purchase.

I had good luck in Alaska. The only times it gave me grief was when I forgo
t to start it. Photo attached.
