SPOT X Satellite GPS Tips
- SPOT X needs a clear view of the sky with no obstructions
- SPOT X 2-way GPS satellite messenger is not reliable at the bottom of a deep canyon, in a cave, in an abyss, or in very dense woods.
- Before heading off the grid, we strongly recommend that you send a test message to ensure your device is activated properly. You can view your sent messages in your account at FindMeSPOT.com/MyAccount

FRINGE S.O.S. AND 2-WAY MESSAGE COVERAGELast updated: 01-12-2021. Estimated coverage area. Actual coverage may vary. Success rates are forecasts for a SPOT messenger to successfully deliver a single message during a 20-minute period, based on network availability. Additionally, it is typical for your environment, such as hills or buildings, to block some messages in everyday situations. That's why the SPOT Messenger is scheduled to automatically send multiple messages in every mode, giving you excellent overall reliability.
