This is not a prompt ,just may help you make up your mind.
I have both,,the
ssb AND Sat.phone,,because i run
offshore and can not always
receive ssb,i use the Sat.phone,its reliable and i can also use it for
email .I was just
given a newer model and have my older Global
for sale,,still in good working order.
