Bob,

If you are referring to the SPOT, I got one as a gift from my wife. Jen Kleck took one to the UK with her for her Level 5 Coach Assessment. After I saw her results with it I decided it would be good for me too. 

So far it works perfectly. I keep it in a pocket of my PFD and when I push the OK button, it sends my location and an OK message to up to 5 email addresses. The location is VERY accurate-think single digit feet. 

Fortunately, I haven't has to test the 911 function.
