RINO 520

Color GPS-Integrated FRS/GMRS Radio
This rugged, two-way radio with GPS packs a bold color display, 14-mile communication range, and turn-by-turn directions — giving you peace of mind in the great outdoors.

Exclusive position-reporting capability and a host of other unique features, make the 520 one of the best all-in-one two-way radio and GPS receivers around. As with other members of the Rino family, the 520’s patented location-reporting feature allows you to send and receive GPS positions with other Rino users in your group. One call to your partner's Rino, and your location shows up on the map page. You can even poll another Rino user's location in emergency situations.

The Rino 520 comes with a built-in detailed basemap of North and South America. When combined with Garmin’s optional City Select software, it provides automatic route generation, off-route recalculation, turn-by-turn directions with alert tones, and icon-driven menus for finding points of interest. Customize map data for your adventures on land or sea with Garmin’s entire line of optional outdoor cartography including U.S. Topo 24K, U.S. Topo, Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots ™, and BlueChart®.
