Signalling for rescue
A man cannot call himself peaceful if he is not capable of violence. If he's not capable of violence he isn't peaceful, he is harmless. There is a distinct difference.

I use the SPOT messenger and have for about 10 yrs.... It works great !.
Cost about $12 a month and has the option to have diff profiles ( so you can share it with other people ).
Tracs every 10 mins on a usable map you can share with others or d/l.
Still using a Gen2 and it lasts about a week + on batts ( with tracking on )
Never had to call for help, but in the US, it has always tracked fine and sent the SMS messgs.
