Ethiopian Odyssey
Pasquale “PV” Scaturro is a renowned explorer. He has been using Inmarsat as his communication solution for almost 20 years. He began his adventure with Inmarsat products in the early 1990’s when he was in Africa working in the oil and gas industry. Recently Telenor Satellite Services supplied him with a Hughes Net 9201 BGAN terminal for his adventure in Ethiopia. He was traveling down the Omo River which is known as the African Queen of rivers. He was documenting this expedition for Outside Magazine due to this being the last trip before the construction of a new hydro-electric plant. This lasted five weeks and was one of the longest rafting trips in memory. They covered more than 1,000km. Everyday during the trip they had to upload pages on the expedition’s website. The unit was also used for staying in touch with email and voice communications. The Hughes Net 9201 terminal was the only way of relating to the modern world. This is an extremely great unit for uploading and video streaming while offering voice reliablity. Globalcom offers this terminal at a competitive price and is available now.
