Terry and others I’ve recently changed to an Iridium handset using the Iridium network which is much better than my old Tel-It handset which used the Globalstar network (these guys keep sending letters to their customers that they’ll launch more satellites to improve their terrible reception, but never do, while Iridium is (so they claim) used world-wide by the army etc). While driving I have reception pretty well permanently and can send & receive text messages from within the car without an external antenna, whereas previously I had to go outside and wait for ages for a signal (sometimes up to 10 mins). (I have no affiliation with either). cheers Peter Waanders Southern Birding Services PO Box 420 Waikerie, South Australia
