Doc, I appreciate the information and advice. I went by the Verizon store while in Panama City (FL) this afternoon. I am connected via a Mi-Fi module as I type. They don't have 4G here at my QTH, but so far 3G is very fast. I'm satisfied so far. I have a couple of weeks to decide. I'll be putting it through the paces,but looks good so far. I may also go with their local home phone system. Keep my home phone number and we can travel with it.

Getting rid of my DSL, landline phone and going all wireless via the Verizon cell system should actually save me near $50 a month. Making the change is one of those head things though. I've had a landline phone and DSL so long it's difficult making the descision. Hi Hi....

I've loaded Echolink a couple of times and it seems to work as well via the wireless system as it did on DSL. It would be nice to not have to worry about campgrounds having wi-fi and being able to connect to the internet while running down the highways.
