[pct-l] Anyone See Censored?

[David Ellzey]

Jen,

Yes, the SPOT has 2 different ways to ask for help. First is the "Ask for Help" message which only goes out to those on a list she made. The second is a "911" that goes out to local emergency rescue services, usually after they try to contact her to see if it was a mistake. (no contact = not a mistake)

It sounds like she really is in trouble if she sent out multiple "Ask for Help" messages. Can you tell us when the last "ask for Help" message was sent?

Dave

The OK was sent first then about 15 minutes later we got the ask for help message -- that was sent about 6 different times each about 15 minutes apart.
Is there a 911 as well as a help call on the Spot?
