- Important tips:
- Test your device before heading out
- Keep your SPOT at least 12 inches away from other GPS devices
- SPOT needs a clear view of the sky to obtain a GPS signal and provide the most accurate location information. It is not reliable indoors, in a cave, or in very dense woods
- Orienting SPOT so that the SPOT logo is facing up toward the sky will improve performance as the antenna is located under the logo
- The SPOT Gen3 provides satellite-based messaging capability so everyone who enjoys the great outdoors can communicate from remote locations around the globe, beyond the reach of cell phones
- The SPOT product family uses both the GPS satellite network to determine a customer's location and the Globalstar network of satellites to transmit messages and GPS coordinates to others. SPOT offers several ways to access communication
- SPOT is a subsidiary of Globalstar, who owns the satellites used for communication services, so there is no worry of a change in satellite providers while you are off the grid
