In case phones are down and stuff during a disaster, what would be the best way to communicate? Ham radio? Satellite phone? I need options guys.

I thought it was a subscription. I think the garmin ones you need to pay a fee to be able to use. Which I find kinda dumb

The garmin ones allow you to use a phone and send txt using the satellites and they have agents that help with things. That’s why they have a monthly fee. Mine only calls emergency rescue.
