Most Inmarsat C terminals are supported but users of
older terminals are strongly advised to check the hardware
compatibility
list before purchasing a Pole Star Fleet Management
service option.
*Pole Star will use reasonable endeavours to track
your transceiver and deliver your position reports.
However sometimes this is not possible due to factors
beyond our control, such as satellite communications
failure.
