Garmin GTM 10 - TMC module for GPS receiver

Works on an FM sideband signal, which utilizes RDS (Radio Data Service) technology. Digitized and coded real-time traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data channel, which means that drivers can still listen to music or news programming on their car radios, without interference from the incoming FM traffic data transmissions In most areas, depending on the service provider, TMC traffic broadcasts are continuous — there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. You see traffic developments in real time, as they happen, so you can make the right decision sooner. The system will alert you when a traffic problem is on your route and propose an alternate route to avoid the incident. Please note: Professional installation is recommended. Traffic services are available only in select cities where RDS-TMC coverage exists In the U.S.: The GTM 10 traffic receiver will come preloaded with a 15-month trial subscription to Clear Channel TMC. To continue the service, a one-year subscription is $60.00. You can extend your current service if your trial subscription has ended or is about to expire or you can purchase a service plan for an additional area.
