GSC 100 Magellan

I made an offer today on a Magellan gsc100. It is old technology, but it is essentially a satellite blackberry the size of a brick and with transmission delays measured in 10 of minutes to hours. It also has VERY limited use covered in the service agreement, like 2000 characters/month.

But it will give us a way to send and receive emergency emails. it also serves as a backup for getting text weather products from NOAA.

reminder to self: activate by contacting Mark Paepcke [mpaepcke@tcdecisions.com]
