General Comments
OK you have got your navman and also a TMC T1 Module
Like me all excited that your going to get all your traffic updates to run to your car plug it in and ....... you guessed it DONT WORK, if your very lucky you might get it working about once a month,
Answer - The Aerial is quite franky as useful as a choclate teapot.
Solution - yep involves yet more money due to Navman's bad design which is a same as I like there Products I have a N60i anyway this is what you need, you may get the parts cheaper but at end of day this appears to work, just copy and paste links for the bits and order.
Part 1 of 2 required
Buy a Garmin MCX to BNC Adaptor Cable
This is about £16 of hard cash for a stupid cable but you need it to connect to your T1, buy the way in case you didn't know MCX means Micro Co-axle
Part 2 of 2 Required
Miniscan Mobile Antenna
Again £14.99 plus postage, But it appears to be the sensible DIY solution to the problem for Mr. DIY no hassle like myself, Maybe Navman will read this and take notice and sort out there own problems before there customers have to take matters into there own hands.
Come on Navman, you can to better than this, you make good GPS units sort your T1 modules out!
