    Anybody using this on their truck when running north where no cell service, for example driving the Alaska Highway? Does it work and let you stay in contact with people and do wifi calls etc?

    I was told by someone in Fort. St. John that it doesn’t work north of there but I haven’t verified it myself.

    I know it will work (Starlink), I have two of the home stationary setups and it is fantastic, I was wondering if anyone had mounted the new mobile system on their truck ($3000 equipment plus $340/month) for communication where there is no cell service, or what the alternatives are. I run FSJ to Whitehorse a lot.
