Anyone actually running TMC in the UK?
Works perfectly on my Mio 269+, as posted above. I've only used the TMC in SE England, so I can't comment on coverage in the rest of the UK. |

Do you have reflective glass on your car, and are you using the internal antenna? Is your device set up to automatically tune in the TMC signal?
It sounds like the radio signal isn't making it thr ... |

| This appears NOT to be the case -- I bought the adapter and I'm picking up a signal in many parts of the country. Need to buy a Y-adapter to wire it into my external aerial, as the internal one provi ... |

| I just bought a Mio 269+, sold mainly on the low price, full European coverage, and TMC integration. I'm starting a new job which involves 80+ miles on the M25 each day, so something that avoids the ... |

| Well, if I can't pick one up locally (which looks unlikely at this point), it looks like I can pick one up on the secondary market for £410 delivered. Wondering whether this makes sense vs. a Dell Ax ... |

| Silly question - are Aldi open on a Sunday, and are there likely to be any of these left anywhere in the country? I'm based in London, FWIW. |
