- Well, that's going a bit far, although an Inmarsat -A station is not
- exactly portable. You may do better with -C or -M. One manufacturer
- in the Ukraine is Musson (but I see they're listed as only making -A)

- Give MNP-10/ACE a try tho. You'd need another MNP-10/ACE capable modem
- on the other end. It does not have to be configured for cellular but on
- the Zoom series -k1 (which allows for autoconversion of LAP-M to MNP-10)
- should be enabled

- Hope this helps
