Tell me about satellite PLB devices

I need a PLB, but don’t want to alert the normal emergency services. Is there any way of a PLB after being set off, only alerting a predetermined email address or number of numbers?

It doesn’t matter if this is via the UK emergency services or SAR, but I will be inland, thousands of miles away from them and they probably won’t be able to help me.

Any thoughts?

Spot tracker?

Joe, what’s your email? I can recommend someone to ask who has just set up a specialist plb rental service. Good guy who knows what he’s doing.

Rich – i had a look at those spot trackers, but they don’t seem to be very reliable. Seems like a bit of a gimmick. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Mail sent.

Happy travels
