Eric:
We''re relying on HF/SSB to date, and so have no experience with either system you mention. Could you offer a cost/min. ''average'' that you''re experiencing for both Mini M & Globalstar. I realize if varies but, if you could ID your average mins/month use & divide that into your total subscription+useage time cost, that would be quite helpful.
Also, what did you experience re: equipment cost? I''m guessing the more recently you purchased, the less you spent...and I''m also guessing Globalstar would have been perhaps 1/4 the cost of the Mini-M gear (not counting installation). But that''s a lot of guessing! Any acquisition/install costs you could share would be most helpful, also.
Many thanks...
