My mom got me the spot gen 4 for Christmas. Im out in the middle of nowhere a lot of the time and am interested in having it for emergencies or communicating when I have no signal however I am not a fan of being tracked on the go. Is there anything to be concerned of with these type of products? Id say yes but I cant find anything online.
Why not use one of these instead? The main downside I see is that you can’t send messages. But there is no monthly service fee. :)

I didn’t mean the message to sound the way it did. You already have the Spot messenger and it is a cool product. I just wanted to present another useful way to signal for emergency help in remote areas.
I think I might go with a PLB! I really dont like the idea of a subscription.
No worries. I can still return it. Ill definitely look into this thank you!!
