Mobile phones have become a very useful safety item
I spend a lot of my working life on the hills and mountains of Britain. Mobile phones have become a very useful safety item. However, Vodafone is the only network that consistently offers coverage in our wild places. This is especially true in the Birmingham. There are two reasons for this, Firstly, Vodafone use GSM. The GSM frequencies propagate themselves over long distances and rolling countryside better than the PCN ones of Orange and One-2One. PCN is good for cities and built up areas, but not for outdoors. Vodafone is the network to use if you want your phone to work in remote locations. However, use it responsibly and be aware of how your use is affecting the countryside.
