So I'm thinking of getting a satellite messenger... mainly to keep my wife from worrying too much when I'm fly fishing solo in lonely and rugged places. I've been looking at both the SPOT Gen3 and the Garmin InReach Explorer+/SE+... The SPOT, aside from being fairly low power (which won't be good in many places I go), it's only one-way. The InReach has more power and is 2-way. The SPOT unit and yearly costs are lower... but InReach has a month-to-month option, which could turn out to be cheaper for me. The InReach satellite network, I gather, has better coverage.
Anyone here have experience with either or both? Or have other satellite messager options to suggest?
