Reliable 2-way Satellite Communication in Remote or High-Risk
Environments, Anywhere in the World
Pair the inReach with a PN-60w (sold separately)
Only 10% of the planet has cell phone coverage, so whether you're working halfway around the world or just hiking the next county over, you can easily find yourself "off the grid"...
...with no way to reach family, colleagues, or emergency assistance.
That's why there's inReach. This unique 2-way satellite communicator delivers global coverage and communication features that cell phones and one-way satellite messengers can't touch.
Features
- Two-way messaging
- Interactive SOS
- Message delivery confirmation
- Pole-to-pole global coverage
- inReach users can communicate directly with one other to share information and locations
You can also post messages to Facebook and Twitter and enable remote tracking so others can follow your travel online.
Use inReach by itself The highly versatile inReach does not require any companion hardware. By itself, it can send pre-loaded text messages and SOS alerts (with delivery confirmation) and enable remote tracking, all via pushbutton.
Pair inReach with a PN-60w GPS Easy wireless connection enables two-way satellite messaging and interactive SOS.
Two-way messaging Send and receive messages up to 160 characters to and from email contacts, cell phones, and the emergency response center.
Interactive SOS When paired with a PN-60w, inReach lets you send descriptive text messages so responders come properly prepared. You can also maintain a dialog with the response center, exchanging updates as the situation dictates.
Message delivery confirmation You'll never have to wonder if your message was received. The inReach will confirm delivery of any text or SOS message, whether it's in standalone or paired mode.

Comments about inReach 2 way Satellite Communication for Earthmate PN 60w GPS:
I decided on the InReach as an alternative to my 9505 satellite phone. I traded in my satphone [paid $1,200] for InReach, and get even more services than what I had in the past. Service plans are really a good value, considering I get NOAA nautical charts, 1:24k topo maps, simple texting etc. Coverage from Seattle to the Far East Asia was there, every time I used it. Rained on it, worked just fine. I hope they made a 12 volt power charger for it.
This device has made my life [and business] easier. Really nice to do 2-way texting, regardless of where I am.
