Default DeLorme InReach Satellite Tracker FOR SALE

Kirk,

One cool thing about Delorme is you can change its update cycles to
you preference. Example, 1 minute for contests. 5 or 10 minutes for
record flights or CC. In this way you minimize your data usage and
can use a lower data plan that costs less. You cannot do this in the
air (need to hook up to a PC), but it only takes a few seconds to
change this.


My inReach SE tracking rate can be set directly on the device - no PC
needed.

Settings Tracking Moving interval

That's on the ground - haven't tried changing the rate in the air, but
have no reason to think it can't be changed in the air.
