Hi there,

I was wondering if any others from rossland received an email from starlink regarding their beta testing program! 
I am not tech savvy and would love to pick someone's brain!

thanks

DD I am going to send you pm! Thank you 

jungleismassive, are you going to partake?

I'm not going to partake because of the cost ($120 / month with over $600 for the device). I live in town so I'm fine with Shaw Cable for now. I'm trying to get on the beta for Rossland Search and Rescue as it would be useful for our mobile command centre. The invites are non-transferrable unfortunately.

and it has to be used at the service address provided so it wouldn't really work for Rossland SAR's mobile needs

Jungleismassive, thank you for your input also! I had a great conversation with DD.

we are down in Paterson so I think we are gonna go for it. I reached out and they said we could return everything within  30 days if it doesn't work, at this rate anything is better then nothing as they say even for us down here
