What diameter is the line you're currently using? Another option is optical fiber, but then you have additional hardware cost on both ends.</p>

<pre class="k9mail"><br />Hi Lasse,<br />Thank you for the link. Unfortunately they recommend a cable no longer than 50m. Most of my dive time will be between 400 and 500 feet. The cable would work fine because I tow a float the same way with buoyant nylon rope. I could bypass the acoustic radio altogether. <br />Hank<hr /><br />On Tue, 5/5/15, Lasse Schmidt via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> wrote:<br /><br /> Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] cell phone link<br /> To: "Personal Submersibles General Discussion" <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><br /> Received: Tuesday, May 5, 2015, 6:44 PM<br /> <br /> I don't know if this<br /> is of any help, but this unit allows for GSM calls<br /> underwater.
