full Thu 19 Jan 2017 #2: Spot Tracker absolute fail

Yesterday I sent an expensive email to ask, are any locations being transmitted by the Spot Tracker? Answer: none at all.

So... Before this trip, I bought an expensive "Spot Gen 3" GPS tracker. Paid triple the advertised price to send and record locations -- triple the advertised price "because I'm in Australia". Yes, I should have looked at the fine print on the hard-to-find web page. Tested it at home, fine. Turn it on overseas -- and it absolutely fails to work.
Absolute rip-off.
Please ignore the link I sent earlier. It was based on the assumption that an overpriced and overhyped piece of junk would work as advertised.
