4. Sat phone & cell would require a form of secondary communication if no signal was attained.
dbd: Do you mean to make or to cancel a 911 call? No signal means that no call is made.
I did not word #4 very well. What I meant to say is "THere is a good chance that while there was a signal when the 911 was made, it may no longer exist when the need for cancellation presents itself", so the need for a back-up re-contact plan would almost be guaranteed when using a cell phone. In fact, my signals are so spotty, that it is almost always the case that I cannot check in regularly, thus, creating MORE anxiety than if I said "I will bee out of range. altogether"
I feel much more understanding about how you stand at this point, Dale. I hope that others go through my informal list and weigh in, this way I don't have to slog through so much text to cross reference opinions.
"What is the SAR accepted protocol on cancelling a 911?" This has been my overarching query since the thread began. If I get a chance, I will do a little survey of the few SARs I know. Bob West, Do you still have contacts that you could pose this query to?
