Hello,

I'm looking for some current information on SAT phone preferences.

Do we have a favorite?

Thanks,

Brent

SAT phone models are dependent on the satellite network you choose.

The most reliable and largest coverage system is the Iridium system, but it is also the most expensive, both for service and equipment.

If you don't need a SAT phone on a regular basis, there are several companies that rent them by the week / month as well.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear really bright, until they start talking
