After some technical difficulties, the delay is over. We have picked a winner for the Delorme inReach 2-Way Satellite Communicator we reviewed a couple weeks back. If you haven’t had the chance to read the review, we encourage you to do so, especially if you’re the type to often play “off the grid.” We’d like to thank Delorme for the opportunity to review the unit and for allowing us to give one away. I know, I know, you just want to know who won. Well, without further ado, the winner of the Delorme inReach 2-Way Satellite Communicator is:
