Hi, I'm a past C-dory 25 owner and currently "Alpine Mist" a Rosborough 246. My cell phone service "Verizon" has been terrible in the US San Juans, but okay in the Gulf Islands on Rogers Wireless @ $5/day. I'm thinking of changing service, what have others experienced with AT&T or T-Moble?
Thanks, Harry Brooks

AT&T works well for us in the San Juans and Gulf Islands. Also most locations up as far as Port Hardy.

On the BC north coast there are remote locations where no service is available.

AT&T coverage in many parts of SE Alaska is good, in some places much better than Verizon's.

Speaking of cell service, has anyone tried Consumer Cellular? I think they are AT&T and T-mobile. I primarily use my phone off the coast of Washington out of Westport and was wondering if Consumer Cellular works offshore.
Thanks for any info forwarded.
