I can use the inreach etc but my old man doesn't even want or know how to send a text msg (mid 70's I don't blame him) Anyways he go's up to the cabin about 100km's from any town and I need to get a reliable phone yes I said reliable no global star junk had them in the past. Is there anything out there a little more reasonable than irdium phones?

Best deal I found this year was a used iridium 9555 got a newer one for $600 on Kijiji then activate it with prepaid SIM card $350 for 200min and 6 months no contracts buy card activate good to go.

This is the best route^

Globalstar is very good now, but the plans are way to expensive.
