Satphone experiences...
never used one. Any real issues you would need to be aware of?

Like a lifeboat, one hopes never to need one. But so wonderful when it is there, when you do.
We all have different expectations, whether for ourselves or others for us. Only we can make that decision of whom to stay in touch with. Many here have family members that have expectations of contact every day. For me, I don’t. That being said, we all get older and emergencies occur. So that might be a reason to have one.
So it really depends on the person. Personally, I find that my cell phone works incredibly well, about 50% of the time. But, I usually know beforehand that the area I am traveling does not have service. But, I am still considering an emergency locater device like a SPOT.
Sat Phone? No.
