Editor's Notes

  1. international focus, subjective views through use and experience\nin the context of an extended overland trip\n - tired, busy (camp, navigation, foreign)\n
  2. fun, work....\n
  3. actually only one, it’s all data now passed over a network\n
  4. phones, radios, internet\nsome overlap\n
  5. GSM is essential\nTalk to provider to \n
  6. GSM, 4G - LTE, agreed on global standard (more or less)\nData, all digital\nblank areas - you need sat phones\n
  7. smartphone disadvantage\nusually locked, subsidy\ncan’t easily get a replacement\nbuy a local sim\n
  8. Iridium, most coverage, expensive \nThuraya offers coverage based over the middle-east and Africa, and is expanding to cover more of Asia.\npitiful data rates (2.4 kbps)\n
  9. all ham radios, NO CBs anymore\nIC-2200H $170 new\nPMR446 (in Europe) and FRS/GMRS (in North America) - cheap, presents, no problem if lost or damaged\n
  10. rules regulations laws\ncould be confiscated\nforget about CBs\nHF and antennas - not practical due to workload\n\n\n
  11. \n
  12. filtering, speed, safety\n - keyloggers, etc. use your own machine. \n
  13. wifi and edge / 3g \nuse local provider sim if possible\nor buy roaming data in advance\nhugely expensive if you’re not careful\n
  14. expensive\nideal if you need comms\nvoip service provided\nrent vs buy\n
  15. \n
