That works, bearing you have a cell signal, which most of us don’t once we get up to altitude.

So you have done it? I was wondering if after doing it you would start getting spam text's

it works from my iPhone but not my iPad. The response is very quick. Handy!

I have done it, yes. Works only when you have a cell signal. Don’t expect it to work when you’re up at cruise.

Cruise? What's that? Higher than 3,500'MSL makes me askeart!

Very neat thanks!
