Is there such a device that I can use to communicate with my wife in the backcountry, that is less expensive than the in reach mini 2? I just want to send a message or two to her and let her get ahold of me when needed, and emergency services if needed. I have onX so I don’t need mapping. Her due date for our second is the second week of hunting season so I won’t be more than 30 mins from the house, but I lose coverage about 5 minutes away and get it spotty on top of the mountains.
I’m clueless about these devices, but she would like the peace of mind knowing I can get help if I need it. I’ll probably suck it up and get the in reach, but to me, it’s a lot for something (up front and monthly payments) I will only use in emergencies or when she wants to check in.
