I have a friend who's also getting excellent Cell Ranger Stix results with AT&T (GSM) service, but I'm not seeing any improvement with Verizon CDMA service:

in EPIRBs Failure - The Investigation Continues | gCaptain.com on gCaptain
Sorry, Robin, I'm going to play the role of curmudgeon on this issue. I went through your report pretty carefully and can't find much real evidence of EPIRB failures attributable to the equipment or SARSAT system. I made my case over at Panbo.com.

Sorry, Peter, I wasn't clear. Try suggest2@panbo.com; the ben@ doesn't work.

I'm a big fan of Grandcentral, too, though so far I've only tested it:

I still have a GC number, though, which apparently means I can invite ten new users to try Grandcentral. Send me an email at Panbo, Peter, and I will put you on the list if you'd like.
