Any updates on Globalstar Sat Phones

[Caveman Sportfishing]

i have a couple of the older models sitting in storage and have not tried using them the last couple of years and wondered if any one is currently using theirs and has the service improved lately.

John .. we have been using ours for the past few seasons with pretty good results ... we added the hard mount antenna and the reliability improved quite a bit ...

Here is a link that shows optimum call times offshore of Cape May NJ. I take this with me when I go.

If you cant see the link let me know and I'll get it to you another way.

Caveman John:

We have used ours as well. It was spotty last summer until August, and then got much better. I hope to add a fixed antenna like Canyon Runner when we get our new boat.

Mark:
That reminds me...can you get me the make and model you have? Do you think it will work on the 42???

I will contact Joe @ Suffolk Lock and Security in the next few days. Also was wondering which rocket luancher is on the new boat. I thought I saw one in a picture and was thinking about putting one on the HU 2 this spring. Hope all is well.

John .. we have a Release 6 rod rocket launcher on the 60. Very nice piece of equipment ...
