Satphones at sea


RAW

Recommended Posts

Has anybody used an Imarsat Pro satphone while at sea? Did it pick up the satellite link OK or was there a difficulty, particularly interested in offshore conditions.

Used Inmarsat on three oceans, various models, always had coverage. I'm quite happy with satphone now and pass on SSB.

 

What he said, same 3 oceans no probs...except once when very oddly while going west-approx 1000 nm west of Galapogas and 1000nm north or Easter island I lost signal for 48 hours and took round 380 nm before it came back on line.
