I just picked up an inreach when my spot subscription expired.



I got the 24.95 a month recreation plan, unlimited 10 minute tracking,

40 text messages a month.



I see this as a nice upgrade from the spot even with 10 minute tracking,

as the tracking on this is far more reliable.



I looked at the aviation plans, if you really need one minute tracking

be prepared to spend some big bucks on your subscription.



The two way messaging(texting)via satellite when you are out of

cell tower range is my main reason for switching.

Agree. The aviation plan is no longer more attractive than the recreation plan at the price they quoted me unless you need more frequent tracking. But the older aviation plan was cheaper than the recreation plan for 10 min interval, and would have cost the same as the spot subscription plan. But it nearly doubled now. Perhaps I was quoted wrongly over the phone. Still has many benefits over Spot no doubt.
