Posted: Thu Jan 02, 2014 11:42 ammy buddy had one, said that it costs 7 bucks per minute or something like that. i think he got rid of it because he couldn't justify the cost.
Re: sat phones?
Posted: Thu Jan 02, 2014 11:44 amI just looked into it deeper and Iridium not only makes the phones but they have the satellites in orbit so I bet you can buy service from them.
The Iridium phones I've installed and used were built like tanks, you could club a baby seal with one.

i know im going to stroke out over the costs of this shit, but it has to be done
will be putting up a base station CB radio or business band radio for communications between us working but at times there is no cell coverage.
no phone....no phone sex

who's your service provider? Not sure how it is in CO but up here the only cell service that works is Verizon. I've found very few areas where i don't have some coverage. You may want to look into that if you haven't already.
either way, hope it works out!

Iridium has 66 satellites in orbit. The price of voice anywhere in the world isn't cheap.

He's buying a product that requires fucking MACHINES IN SPACE and he can TALK ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET.
I don't think you quite understand what he bought.

Olly, he hasn't found many places in MT where verizon doesn't have good coverage
I haven't found many places it does: mountains are a bitch. Shit, coverage is even spotty here and it's really flat.
