Sorry for re-starting an old thread (seemed more appropriate to revive this one that starting a new one).
I wondered if anybody uses a Thuraya satellite phone for SMS spotting? I presume that spotting would work from a satellite phone?
On the Thuraya website they say something about certain networks having issues but I think that relates to their older models of phone.
I’m thinking about getting a satellite phone & wanted to make sure I got one that I could use to spot from. Looking at either the XT Lite, or the X5 Touch.
