: Note the "band" information in the table on the right. If a phone does not use these : frequencies, it's not a cell phone. As an almost total aside, I got my Globalstar GSP-1600 satellite phone today. This is the same phone handset used by controlvision for their weather data delivery, though I did not buy it through controlvision and I do not intend to use the controlvision software. I bought this thing for a (very) remote data delivery project at work. I have not yet used the thing, but I will pass along the pirep when I have. The big limitation seems to be that the antenna has to be perfectly vertical, with a clear view of the sky. It does not work inside a house, or in a car. Presumably it could be used in an airplane if the phone were on the glareshield. -- Aaron Coolidge (N9376J) |
