[QUOTE="joshua99ta, post: 1239176, member: 21026"] How many of you guys use a sat phone on your journeys? I've got some future hunts planned and in my most recent trip to Northen Ontario, I got there and cell service was almost non existant. I don't care to be able to talk to people or anything but I would really like something there for an emergency situation and the occasional check in with family. I've looked at the spot and delorm(sp?). I'm thinking more along the lines of a iridium 9555 and a prepaid setup as I won't be needing it throughout the year. I've considered switch wireless carriers to AT&T which seems to get better service in most remote places than my current carrier. But over a 5 year span I would actually save money buying a sat phone and doing a 3-4 month prepaid service. My current cell provider has about the best plans out there money wise. Even then AT&T isn't going to have coverage 50-60 miles into the Canadian bush. [/QUOTE]
