Works...

I tried using this item for the first weekend during So Cal fire storms and the ash in the air must have affected the GPS. Every 5th message seemed to transmit and with no location available. Also during a heavy rain storm no transmission. Even on clear days some messages took 30 mins or more to reach recipient. The Spot Tracker has worked where my cell phone did not and that's why I bought it. Somewhat spotty mountain coverage, no pun intended. The added tracking service seems overkill, but some may find that useful.
