[QUOTE="russperry, post: 1328965, member: 22548"] For these kind of tracking purposes and if you have either an iPhone or Android phone, you might want to consider using either SWConnect or BubblerGPS. In these apps you can send all kinds of custom messages with details about specific locations instead of just a generic "OK". At least with SWConnect (no experience with Bubbler) you can send "Food", "Gas", "Hotel", "Performance Award", "Bonus Location", or any custom message you want. And there is a simple but informative GUI that lets you see what you're doing and whether your messages have been sent, instead of just the cryptic green flashing lights you get with a SPOT. SPOT devices seem to be really great if you're going to spend a lot of time out of cell range and you want something to help locate you in case of incident, but the smart phone apps are a lot more flexible and FREE.
