Title: Re: spot vs. sat phone
Post by BillConner on Nov 1st, 2010 at 11:37pm
As I reported above, my son on 21 day solo sent a signal every day and it was great.  I knew where he was for the night.

Talked to outfitter and he told of a dad + 3 children at site of Rebecca Falls drowing this summer.  He pushed the HELP! button.  RAngers showed up but for the intervening 4 or so hours his wife was beyond herself.  Interesting dilema and a case for sat phone.
