Best GPS Tracker No Subscription for USA
Track anything across American land — national forests, ranches, hunting grounds, hiking trails — without a SIM card or monthly fee.
Most GPS trackers sold in the USA rely on mobile networks. They work well in cities, but the moment you head into Wyoming backcountry, Appalachian forests, Texas ranches, or Alaska trails, the signal drops and so does your tracker.
Loko is different. It uses LoRa radio on the 915 MHz ISM band — the same licence-free frequency used across the USA — to transmit GPS positions directly to your handheld receiver. No SIM card, no monthly contract, no mobile coverage needed.

Keep your group visible on an offline map across multi-day hikes in the Rockies, Sierra Nevada, White Mountains, or Pacific Crest Trail sections. No phone signal required.
Outdoor Dogs & Pets
Track pets across rural farms, camping trips, and outdoor adventures where you need reliable local tracking without relying on urban iPhone density.

Loko operates on the 915 MHz ISM band, which is licence-free in the USA under FCC regulations. No amateur radio or business licence is required to own or operate the device.
The device complies with FCC Part 15 requirements. It ships to the USA with no import restrictions.
