This waterproof FRS/GMRS radio plus GPS navigator sports 5 watts of transmit power, a microSD card slot and brilliant color display along with a high-sensitivity GPS receiver — so you’ll never be lost again.

Pinpoint Your Position

With its high-sensitivity GPS receiver, Rino 520HCx locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear — whether you’re in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on Rino 520HCx to help you find your way when you need it the most.

Like the rest of the Rino series, Rino 520HCx offers a unique Position Reporting feature. Position Reporting lets you send your exact location to other Rino users in your group so that everyone can see your position on the map page.

Other Rino 520HCx features:

• Bold color TFT display makes it easy to see and navigate to family or friends at an amusement park, lake or other outdoor group activity.
• microSD™ card slot accepts preloaded MapSource® data cards with detailed maps.
• Automatic routing and turn-by-turn directions with alert tones let you find an address or point of interest and drive there (with optional MapSource map data).

Customer Reviews:

Jared D. Lane (White Pine, TN USA)

I purchased the 530HCx about two weeks ago to use while deer hunting in East Tennessee. Everyone in our group has GPS and two-way radio to find our way around and communicate when we are in unfamiliar territory. I have been searching for a device that will take care of both needs, without having to handle two seperate pieces of equipment, and the 530HCx has worked flawlessly so far… (more reviews here)

Customer Reviews:

Matt Jachyra (Brooklyn, NY USA)

Garmin Rino 120 is the new GPS/Walkie-Talkie that my group picked up for out last kayaking outing. I already own Garmin Legend but I figured that I can sell it and for extra money have a reliable communication and navigation tool in one. Well using it all weekend proved that it was worth the money. It has the standard features of the radio and GPS unit so you already know what to expect out of the box but there are some extra functions that are unique for Rino. I love the trip odometer feature which allows me to time my progress, … (more reviews here)

Rino® 110

Customer Reviews:

Christian Wheeler “Husband/Father/Gamer/Proud Geek” (St. Louis)

For those who love to hike, camp, hunt or enjoy outdoor activities, this little device may soon become a standard. It has remarkable communications range, with the option of choosing from the Family Band (range: 2 miles or so) or the wider-ranging (but more battery-consuming) General Mobile Radio Service (5 miles or so). These frequences aren’t used nearly as much as other bands and are more likely to be free from unnecessary cross-talk and interference, which makes for clearer communication. But what makes this stand out from standard outdoor devices is the GPS satellite link, which allows you to pinpoint your position accurately,… (more reviews here)

All you need to do to enjoy these new features is download the latest Rino 110 software.
