Anyone carry one of these on solo hunts?
Amazon.com: ACR 2880 ResQlink Non-Buoyant PLB - Programmed for US Registration: Cell Phones & Accessories
Seems simpler than spot or inreach for a real emergency since:
1. It goes directly to the National SAR community.
2. No monthly fee
3. Smaller and lighter
4. Sends out a second signal the SAR teams can use to zero in on your location if your go unconscious/cant communicate.
I hunt with a map/compass and no GPS. Most of the time I have zero to limited cell coverage. Not real interested in paying monthly activation fees.
Thoughts or feedback?
