Spot or InReach ??

Why not install OGN receivers for tracking? Just one good installation at home airfield covers most of your cross country flights. We get 100 km range with one good antenna. Size. Population density. Terrain. Infrastructure. Cost. ... and even then OGN is not the best technology you want if needing SAR help or two way communication to organize a retrieve. I know in Europe you just call folks up on your cell phone... Folks wanting to track contests or flights near specific locations etc. are playing with this type of stuff, but an inReach tracker is a much more suitable device for many USA XC glider pilots.
