The Tech-Go Handheld Satellite Phone provides ability to make and receive calls from anywhere in the world. Coverage is available planet-wide and you must be outside to use it with line-of-sight to the sky. Due to innovative design, you merely raise the antenna to make and receive calls. Voice quality is good (similar to analog cellular service) with a .25 second delay and we recommend you speak clearly into the unit. Although this is the best handheld global service available, it is common to have dropped calls in or out after a) 3 to 5 for Basic Model and b) 15 minutes for Executive Model - If you need the best voice quality available and longer call duration, you can review the larger and more powerful units below. Phone includes incoming phone number and voicemail with indicator which aids in situations where the phone does not ring due to low signal strength. Due to rotation of satellites, incoming calls will not always ring the phone, but caller may leave voicemail for callback. The Tech-Go Handheld Satellite Phone is an ideal communication tool for travelers who need the most portable and economical solution.
