1390T comes with supplementary TMC aerial?

[DanH]

Hi I just picked up a 1390 as they are up at 120 quid on ebuyer including P&P (I did 5 day ship it arrived day after order...).

Anyway in the box is what I am guessing a supplementary TMC aerial? This isn't mentioned in any review or the docs. Is this just a UK thing because we have such weak TMC signals? Do I need to use it?

TIA

Hi M8

I would love to even have the possibility to connect an external areal. Read my message over here for an explanation.

Where can it be connected? My TMC receiver is built into the cable connecting the unit with power, where a fixed areal, just a plain strip of cable, is attached.

I had to phone garmin about 1 or 2 things and questioned them about the TMC antenna.They told me it plugs into a small hole on the mains car power lead.
