Thread: Starlink vs PLB

PLB all day long. Set that off and you will have a helicopter despatched straight away. What will you do with a phone? Ring 111 and they will send an ambulance and then access the situation. By the time someone gets to you you could already be in a hospital getting treated. I'm speaking from personal experience. I set off PLB and rang 111 just because I got service and thought they might pass on info to chopper. They sent an ambulance even though I told them I was 4km from a road and chopper was on the way. In an emergency use your PLB.
