Can you point to some specification?
I bought this: http://www.ebay.de/itm/220893353886 ... this is the producer link: http://www.zclelec.com/productShow.asp?id=87, it is the "famous" TK201"
There is now a product specifically for EU market, maybe designed for Conrad: GT 170 and GT 280 ... if you have access to a conrad shop maybe it is an better option
Mainly ... in my case I have a double sim contract, unluckily only 1 sim receive SMS, but both are able to send .... so I can call my SIM (switching off my phone, using VoIP or somebody else phone), and the tracer send an SMS with coordinates. This is my usage
Else ... there are tons of option, mainly designed for car alarms (that is a nice to have, since they did stole already to me a BMW few years ago) ... you can download the manual from the producer web page
Anyhow, for 35€ shipped is not a brainer. On top it has his own battery, so no additional powering needed. And if I'm not wrong this is around 60g device ... so easy to install if you have a big bird (in a small bird the most valuable item is the GluonPilot gear )

Doesn't GSM unit mess with electronics on board the plane?
Have you tested such solution already?
