Hi Molly et al.,
I've been using a SPOT gen3 device for fieldwork and for recreation in Wyoming
wilderness areas. My biggest issue is user error...if you leave the tracking
device on, which is not necessary for sending emergency or non-emergency
messages, you have to restart it after 24
I have also used the DeLorme inReach extensively, and found they work quite
well for non-emergency communication and are rugged.
They are often quick to send/receive messages but sometimes can take over
an hour to send. This seems to vary based on terrain (worse in valleys,
canyons, and forested
The Spot has worked well for me for a similar purpose. It has not had
particularly delicate handling and has held up just fine (is on it's third
field season). I can't recall any issues with weather interference.

I use a Delorme InReach in Alaska/Yukon, which provides tracking and SMS as
well. I don't know SPOT devices. But the InReach has worked really well

I've used the DeLorme (now part of Garmin) inReach. Which uses
satellites to send both emergency and text messages. You can pre-program
some messages for faster sending. Is supposed to work world-wide. I
haven't tried the emergency call feature. It worked well for messages.
