Just got an email yesterday that my starlink setup is confirmed and ordered. They added the rural canada discount they have on promotion too which was a bonus!

I seen one last summer, more spread out than that though.

If you can find a very dark place on a clear night you can easily see the Starlink Satellites. After a while they almost become distracting, there is just so many of them crossing the sky all the time.

I saw them one time at McLean Creek camping. 10 or 11 of them sailing across the sky, all perfectly spaced. Pretty neat to see

The major network and cell outage the other day was a huge pain at work, glad I had a starlink on site to communicate with our control center.

Am I understanding this correctly….
Would a person not need any other provider after 2025???

It would still go through a cellular provider but I think this would be an add-on.

And yes Roger’s needs all the help it can get

Weather will affect it. Like the old satellite dishes.
