GLOBAL TRACKERS

WHERE THE HECK AM I?:

(ASK-SPOCK?)

BETTER THAN CRUMBS TRAILS:

(24 SATELLITES TRIANGULATION)

AND WHY YOU REALLY SHOULD BUY OR RENT ONE OF THEM!:

A new development on this important survival aspect. An ever increasing raft of products is trying to answer this fundamental question.

If your question is more geographical than metaphysical, then you are a prime candidate for the new Panasonic KX-G5700.

That mumbo jumbo name refers to the SMALLEST HAND-HELD GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM YET.

And the first with a built-in display. By tapping into the Defense Department's system of 24 satellites.

The KX-G5700 can determine YOUR EXACT LATITUDE, LONGITUDE and ALTITUDE.

The price was announced but by the time this article gets to you there is no doubt in my mind that newer versions will have come about at good price, to rent or buy them.

If when one values his or her life, and that of his or her family and friends safety & peace of mind should accident or mishap occur in the wild...

If one can afford car or yatch; or to go hunting etc. Then one should real seriously consider the security and other advantages for him or his family in case of emergency and to buy or rent such a tracking unit for safety & peace of mind

If you don't go in the water without a life jacket! Then don't go into the wild without a tracking system which will work better than any older methods, especially when calling in for help. (SOS - SPOCK!!!)

So be prudent and wise and get on track; use new tracking system. Let science help you!

After all a compass was a good progress, why not use a better way, even bringing your old compass would not hurt anyway. Safety should prevail.
