RDS/TMC radio receiver

The RDS/TMC radio receiver is the ideal addition of existing navigation on the pocket PC. A small Tool indicates the current Stauinfo's in plain language to you. TMC works European-wide and is free of charge to be received. It does not result monthly basic charges as with other pilot services.

Navigate at the back-up past and not in the middle purely.

Since autumn 1997 in Germany as first country traffic warnings on the basis of topical traffic data, generated surface covering automatically in Europe, by broadcasting corporations are radiated - RDS/TMC (radio DATA System/Traffic Message Channel) makes this possible.
RDS/TMC car radios were established just like RDS/TMC supported navigation systems. For the user of this service, apart from the broadcast fees, no further costs result.

They also do a USB version similar but only for TMC/GPS
