Equipment
There are three main kinds of handset are available:
Portable Handset: Iridium 9505a

NEW: Fixed Mount Iridium with GPS Tracking System
Very compact unit, with integrated GPS unit and microprocessor. The unit is discreet and can be left onboard and will send it's location either on a timed basis, or it can be "pinged" to deliver an instant position report. In the case of theft it allows the vessel to be recovered quickly, and of course it provides comfort that the vessel is "where you left it". Combined with our online tracking and ships log system you can use it to show your friends a "breadcrumb trail" on an interactive map of your last trip! Annotate the adventure with photos and more!
Excellent voice quality and because the main unit and all the wiring can be hidden away behind a bulkhead it's much neater than the portable system, especially when using the external antenna. Highly recommended!
