| If you are thinking about buying one of these, you are probably already late in doing so. By the grace of God I've never used mine. If you use it once to save your life, how much would you pay? $600? $6,000? $60,000? Do your loved and yourself a great service....go for it! |

| Good for those left home! 08-07-08 |

| Went paddling in Canada's Quetico park this year.
Problem is that those left home don't know if you are OK or not, until you get back in and to a phone.
If you get weather delays, etc., but aren't hurt, they get to worrying.
I bought this unit and told my wife that if she didn't get a call from Search and Rescue that we were OK, just delayed. It eased her mind. We fortunately didn't have to use it, but having it with us put everyone at ease.
Get one before you go outward bound.

| Great Product 01-04-09 |

| I am 66 years old and go hiking in places that I probably should not. I have a satellite phone that only works when a satellite is overhead, not to often. I am going hiking and fishing in the Wind River Mountains this coming August and this unit makes me feel more secure. I live in Arizona and hike and camp in places where there is no water. If you miss judge your water needs or get hurt and can,t get out before you run out of water this unit could save your life. I think the ACR is worth the price. THE SPOT UNIT IS A PIECE OF JUNK! OR AT BEST A TOY. |
