 |
|
I still haven't managed to get a traffic service on my 3790t
It is bank upto date software wise including the Gtm35 traffic / receiver
It just searches for a traffic provider but never finds one.
Any ideas? Is it poss the receiver is faulty? I haven't used the antennae with the windbreak suckers as o thought that was europe only?
Cheers

You need to use the windscreen wire in the UK too.... |

Ahh. Schoolboy error! Do I set the traffic provider to autosearch or trafficmaster?
Thanks again

In the UK we get the weakest traffic signals in Europe, so the receiver needs all the help it can get. Stay with autosearch, it stops the unit getting picky about subscriptions etc. - it will find TrafficMaster eventually if you are in an area with adequate reception - it can be very patchy.
