5 Stars antenna
i own a streetpilot 7200. this antenna has helped us get arround horrible detroit traffic and has entertained us on long trip. i haven’t experienced any traffic that i wasn’t alerted to or any issues receiving a good signal.
1 Stars Did Not Work
Great price but it did not work. I returned to Garmin and am awaiting a new unit. Warranty is good!
5 Stars Got it for my Harley and it works great
I bought the Zumo 550 from Amazon for a little over $500. new, and it has worked great. Much better then my Tom-tom rider 2, and I just got XM GXM30 from Amazon. And you have to watch this site but I got my GXM30 for $24.99, thru Amazon from Car Toys in Seattle. It’s a bit big, but I was able to make a permanent mount on my Harley. Called XM and got it started and now I have all the radio I need plus Directions from my Zumo. As for the Battery in the Zumo, it didn’t work right. Would not hold a charge, I called Garmin and they sent me (2) new batteries.
Overall I’m real happy with my Zumo and XM.
3 Stars It’s ok for what it is
I have the Garmin StreetPilot 7200 and this antenna was required to use the unit for XM. I got rid of alot of clutter on my dash by having both gps and XM in the same. Make sure that this antenna is up high! I have it mounted on my semi truck driver side mirror arm, and in eastern Ohio and PA it’s cutting out alot.
Pros: One thing on the dash.
Cons: Cuts out even when the south sky is clear…
5 Stars GREAT MUSIC
The Garmin GXM30 satellite Antenna is perfect for the Harley. Great music, weather and traffic.
