Iridium two-way satellite communication board - easy global comms

Hi, am a student at Colorado School of Mines and this semester by partner and I intend on building a backcountry emergency beacon that can send and receive messages in a remote environment.

We are also going to add some diagnostics to to keep track of the users vital signs.

This shield would be ideal for the project.

If the offer is still open we would greatly appreciate the chance to work with this piece of equipment.

Thanks.
