Antenna works great!

 

Antenna works great!

I use this antenna w/ a nuvi 750 (now discontinued). We used to wait 5-7 min for the unit to acquire satellite but the antenna cuts that time down to nothing. We even get a signal now in the house and garage. Recommend this product.

Excellent performance

 

Excellent performance

This really pulls in the signals, and much more quickly than the built-in. Short cord good good for use on foot. Might be a bit short for some car layouts, but fine for my Sentra. Recommended

Essential in Seattle

 

Essential in Seattle

Seattle can have terrible GPS reception, especially when driving North/South on I-5. There seems to be a number of dead zones around the city. I own a Garmin 760 and sometimes I can drive all the way to my destination before it acquires a satellite....

Definitely improves satellite reception

 

Definitely improves satellite reception

I have a 2007 Camry with one of those windshields that interferes with reception on my Garmin c340. Got tired of losing the satellites and got the Glisson antenna (with a 9 foot cord, didn't think 3 foot would be enough) which virtually eliminates...

The tinted windshield on my Mazda Protege shielded my Garmin C330. Under cloud cover or rain, it couldn't acquire satellites, although the Garmin C330 works fine in my Fiero. This antenna gives me good reception. It must be placed on the flat of the...
