Can anyone recommend a dealer in
Perth who can help without baffling with B..S..? I am not that hot with technology and will only be carrying this phone for emergency use when in the sticks.
I would prefer in the northern suburbs but I am happy to travel for helpful service and a reasonable price.
I have thought long and hard about getting a sat phone and while I prefer to prepare
well and avoid high risk activities, there are times when things could come horribly unstuck and emergency comms could be needed while remote travelling. I don't think my bride would be able to get her head around
HF radio (if I was out of action and needing help) so it looks like a sat phone is on the cards.
It looks like we should be able to get the subsidy so that will help to justify the loosening of the purse strings.
Thanks for helping the technically challenged!
Brad
