Tom Shewbridge says
Creative answer! Thanks so much for sharing, have a great day! Good Luck… ~Tom

I have always heard about these phones for travelers to far-off locations. I could also use this on patrol in areas that have spotty radio coverage and no-cell phone service.

marian boll says
My daughter preforms destination weddings in the Colorado Rocky Mountains where often times, there is no cell phone service.
This phone would be so great and perfect for when she needs to contact her staff in Estes Park for needs or to receive calls from clients.

Would be awesome hiking like someday when I get to visit Mt. denali

I would like to have it on my next trip to the Grand Canyon.

Just explored the big island of Hawaii and I’d love to go back–this would be a must!

“What tropical or far away destination would you want to have this in, if you were to ever need it for rescue?”
Mauritius!
Jessica Gipson says
I would like to have this in Appalachian trail mountains in maine.
Ruy Morris says
My husband and I take our 4-wheelers and go camping in remote areas in Alaska where we live. Cellular service is usually not available where we like to go, and it would ease my mind to have a SAT phone to use for emergencies.
nathaniel says
Cool that it can work anywhere though !!!!!!!
Darlene Comeaux says
I would use while visiting my mother-in-law, she lives in a dead zone.

M. Landry says
What tropical or far away destination would I want to have this in, if I were to ever need it for rescue? Well…several! I’ll be returning to Peru for a visit next year (my fourth trip, having spent time volunteering there) and plan to trek to some fairly remote places. My next volunteer vacation is in Thailand, though I may go to the Phillippines first. I have a friend who is doing disaster relief and I’d really like to go there and see what i could do to help.. If I went there, I might very well leave the phone with him, because he’s there for the long haul.
Tom Shewbridge says
Thank you so much for the reply. Very nice what you said. The rules was for full name in entries and blog posts. I never want to disqualify people, but I might have to. I thank you again for being here. But if people were to enter a contest from a major website you are not going to use initials or partial names, the company would never award the prize. Have a great day! ~Tom
RICHARD SKUSE says
would want to have this if I were ever hiking
Katy says
My dream vacation is to go to Fiji and stay in a hut over the water like you see in all of the pictures of there. So if I had to be stranded somewhere, why not there?
chris says
great site! keep it up
Tom Shewbridge says
OK!
Theron Willis says
I’d carry the phone while hiking a mountain top in Nepal.
Carrie G says
I would want this for my oldest son. I’d like him to travel the world after graduation and before he becomes a paramedic and gets married and has kids. I would feel much better knowing he has this with him. He wants to go to Portugal, Costa Rica, Belize and many other places.
Tom Shewbridge says
Hi Carrie,
Thank you for your comment, and I really don’t want your entry to get disqualified, but leaving initials for entries does not qualify. Good Luck, and thanks again. ~Tom
Kelly D says
I would like to have this in the Rocky Mountains.
Alison Gibb says
I would want this phone with me if I was ever on a safari in Africa and I fell off the jeep I was on. Cuz, maybe they wont notice that I fell off and I would want them back ASAP!!
Tom Shewbridge says
That would be horrible. This might be helpful, but keep in mind depends on the coverage area, and plan you choose. 🙂 ~Tom
jesse mayle says
This phone would be great for an emergency in any out of the way or remote location where you wouldn’t expect help to be close by but I would really like to have it with me when I’m camping in the mountains or deep sea fishing.
Cindy Peterson says
I would use this in the Frank Church Wilderness.
Samantha Daleo says
I would take it in all of my travels incase of emergency since I guess you never know when you will have signal and when you don’t but I would love to explore every inch of Hawaii with it first, just to see where I might need it most 😉
Valencia says
Not so much tropical or far away but my boyfriend loves to go camping and he really seems to love places that are in remote areas with no cell phone service. I would love to have a phone like that in case of emergency.

I would love to go to a deserted Islands.

In it to Win it

Can I use it as a hotspot in the middle of the swamp. I need my Angry bird Fix.

PJake says
Falkland Islands

The Outback of Australia

This is a very interesting phone!! With my husband traveling a lot I think he would love to have something like this on hand. This is my first time hearing of this phone, love all the features!

A SAT Phone is meant to be used in places where cell service doesn’t exist. So yes, this would be good for any major traveling. Thanks so much for stopping by. ~Tom
Trey Smith says
Africa
Tina Tharpe says
Iceland
Edward says
If I was at The Seychelles, which is located off the east coast of Africa, that’s where I could use it.
Charlene says
I would like it to be in Australia.
Marty C. says
I’d actually use it when camping, completely unexotically, in Kansas. There is no cell phone service for miles around our campsite and we’ve got small kids, so a satellite phone would be a real reassurance.
Sarah says
I would want to have this if I were ever hiking, backpacking, or camping in Alaska.
Marj says
Alaska would be a perfect destination. Good for when you go hunting and get lost. Great giveaway. Thank you!
