Default Spot tracking consistency

I've been watching some of the Globalstar SPOT tracks from Region 9 in
Parowan. I'm interested in SPOT and think the concept is really great.

However, Monday the Internet server seemed to be down for most of the day so
no tracks were available until after 5PM. Some of the users were getting
tracking reports every ten minutes, some every 20 minutes and others
suffered many hour long gaps. AFAIK all the tracks ended well short of the
gliders landing at Parowan.

This is not encouraging. It's beginning to look like SPOT is spotty.
