  2. I tried this one but returned it: https://www.amazon.com/Atcall-Booster-Vehicle-Signal-Carriers/dp/B0FSXY6KMN It did work, but it still needs coverage and didn't seem reliable (for me anyway). The Starlink system is a much better option I believe. Yes, they are expensive and charge a monthly fee, but they work well everywhere from what I have seen.
  3. Join us for a leisurely day exploring easy trails in the Plamosa Mountains. Planned destinations include the Southern Cross Mine and the Bouse fisherman intaglio. We might be able to visit some other sites as time allows. Sign up Here!
