So do PLbs rely on the sat network. Thei homing becon is very short range.

I would suggest you should have both. But Inreach allows you to say "Waiting on weather or rivers to drop" to those who may be worried
also if you have a "drama" you have 2 way comms with Inreach rescue centre which is never a bad thing I think

Plbs are beacons as well. That is their advantage.that and battery life.... I suggest you carry both
