All the talk about PLB's and Sat phones...who ever takes these on road trips? Less than 1% of car drivers would have these. Are they really on anybodies vehicle kit, or even recommended by preparedness organizations, outside of this list? Just raising a point of question...


I have a Globalstar GSP-1600 with 2 batteries and a car charger in a Pelican box, an ACR Aquafix 406, and a Garmin Etrex Vista Cx loaded with Topo USA in a backpack when I'm headed out into the backcountry (that's in addition to PSK, food, etc.). But I get WAY OFF the grid and am known for overkill <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
