That's what I'd do as well. Some personal locators will send an "I'm
OK" message, too to designated recipients. And, if you don't want to
buy a personal locator... you can rent them, which might be less
expensive, if it's a one-time trip.

I love amateur radio.
However, if I was living 200 miles from the nearest real town, I'd
invest in a good Personal Locator Beacon (or two) . The kind with a
built-in GPS.
Sure, it's not "communications" but it's a one-button "come get us,
we're right here" and the Search and Rescue Satellites are quite good.
I keep mine in the car.

the nearest real town and if we need help then I would really love

in trouble. So , does anyone have a good amp. suggestion with
experience
?Thanks in advance.
