Being a regular traveller to the TOP End over the last 40 years one thing has become apparent....ability to communicate when out in the middle of nowhere is paramount if needed. I have used quite a few devices over my time.....the most reliable and affordable units I've come across, especially in the last 15 - 20 years are the Oricom ones. They simply have never let me down. I've been in some way out places but always have been able to get contact whenever I needed it. I couldn't recommend Oricom gear any higher...definitely my go to now and into the future! Thanks Oricom
