North America or Europe, announces streets by name, offers pedestrian navigation options and calculates a more fuel-efficient route with ecoRoute™.

Navigate City Transit

With its enhanced pedestrian navigation capabilities, nüvi 1250 is the perfect travel companion for getting around town. Download optional cityXplorer™ content to help you navigate city public transit. Know where to walk, where to catch the bus, subway, tram or other transportation and how long it will take to get there. cityXplorer maps are available for select cities throughout North America and Europe. And with prices as low as $9.99, you’ll have money left over to spend in the big city.

Take It With You

Twenty-five percent slimmer than other nüvis, you can take the ultra-thin 1250 anywhere. It easily fits in your pocket or purse, and its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot.

Get Turn-by-Turn Directions

nüvi 1250’s intuitive interface greets you with two simple questions: “Where To?” and “View Map.” Touch the color screen to easily look up addresses and services and get voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions that speak street names to your destination. It comes preloaded with detailed City Navigator® NT street maps, nearly 6 million points of interest (POIs), 2-D or 3-D maps and the speed limit for most major roads. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. With the 1250’s enhanced user interface, you can slide your finger to conveniently scroll between screens. You can also upload custom points of interest (POIs). And with HotFix™ satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.

Go Beyond Navigation

Navigation is just the beginning. nüvi 1250 saves you gas and money with ecoRoute — a green feature that calculates the most fuel-efficient route, tracks fuel usage and more. The 1250 includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, you can download pictures from Garmin Connect™ Photos and navigate to them. It’s also compatible with lifetime traffic alerts or MSN® Direct (receiver purchase required for either option). With its “Where Am I?” emergency locator, you always know your location. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and fuel stations. The 1250 features Garmin Lock™, an anti-theft feature, and is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where you can download custom custom voices and vehicles. Enhance your travel experience with optional plug-in microSD™ cards.

Garmin Astro 220 GPS-Based Canine Tracking System with DC 30 Collar – 010-00596-01

Filed under: Dog Tracking and Training — northadamsoutdoors @ 12:46 pm

Tired of searching for your hunting dog in tall grass or dense cover? Now you can leave the hunting entirely to him. Introducing Astro 220, the first high sensitivity GPS-enabled dog tracking system for

hunters and sportsmen. This unique system pinpoints your dog’s position and shows you exactly where he is, even when you can’t see or hear him.

Attach Collar and Go

The Astro system includes a bright color-screen handheld GPS device and the rugged, all-weather DC 30 collar. The collar has an integrated GPS transmitter and is specially weighted so the antenna will always point to the sky for optimum signal. To get started, just take Astro outdoors and turn on the handheld and transmitter to acquire GPS satellite signals. Then attach the DC 30 to your dog. Now you’re ready to turn him loose — no other setup required.

Track Dogs in Dense Cover

As often as every five seconds, your dog’s DC 30 transmits his position to your handheld, and you can see his current location and a trail of where he’s been on the Map page of your handheld. Switch over to the Dog Tracker page to view a compass pointing to your dog’s location as well as his current status: whether he’s running, sitting, on point or treeing quarry. Astro can also sound an alarm to let you know instantly when your dog goes on point.

Astro boasts a high-sensitivity GPS receiver that can track your dog’s position even in the densest cover. You can track up to ten dogs at one time with Astro, at a distance of up to seven miles away (depending on terrain). The system transmits information by line-of-sight, so it reaches farthest in flat, open territory.

Count Your Coveys

After you’ve captured your quarry, mark the exact spot with Astro’s Covey Counter™, a special waypoint that tells you the exact location, time of day and elevation where you found your prey, as well as the number of birds you flushed and took from that location. Astro lets you save other special waypoints, such as “Truck” and “Lodge,” so you can save the location of these places quickly and easily for each hunt. Astro also offers special waypoint icons to represent food plots, tree stands and other hunting-related points.

Experience Full-featured GPS

Astro shines when you’re out on the hunt, but it also excels in getting you back to your truck at the end of the day, or even back home again. In fact, the Astro handheld has all the features of Garmin’s top-line handheld outdoor devices, including a barometric altimeter, electronic compass, microSD™ card slot, celestial information, area calculator and rugged, IPX7 waterproof exterior. With optional detailed city street maps, you can search for over 6 million points of interest and create a route on roads with exact turn-by-turn directions.

Due to varying international regulations, the Astro is approved for use only in the United States.

Product Detail

Introducing the new SANYO Easy Street NVM-4370 portable GPS navigation system, equipped with intuitive user menus, convenient navigation features and entertainment options.

Text-To-Speech Navigation: Easy Street’s NVM-4370 unit features turn-by-turn, text-to-speech navigation. Text-to-speech technology announces approaching street names and the number of feet or yards until your turn. It’s like having your own personal guide riding with you in the car.

Bluetooth: Easy Street incorporates Bluetooth technology, allowing convenient, wireless connectivity and hands-free use with Bluetooth enabled cell phones, even while in navigation mode. You can also wirelessly transfer data between your Bluetooth enabled device and the Easy Street System. Send text messages, transfer contact and phonebook data.

Pre-Installed Maps: Set up of the Easy Street Navigation System is simple because there’s no software to download. Maps are pre-loaded and ready to go. Map data covers the US, including Alaska and Hawaii, Canada and Puerto Rico.

TMC & Auto/Manual Detour: The SANYO Easy Street NVM-4370 unit gives you the option of utilizing TMC when you purchase the TMC receiver sold separately, through Traffic Message Channel. This application broadcasts real-time traffic and weather information, alerting the driver of any upcoming problems on the planned route. Get instant knowledge of accidents, roadwork delays and traffic jams that may delay the original arrival time to your desired destination. The Auto/Manual Detour feature will calculate an alternative route so you can avoid the incident. A free 90-day trial of TMC service is included with your Easy Street NVM-4370 (TMC receiver sold separately)! If you continue to use TMC service after 90 days, click here to purchase and activate your 12-month subscription.

Built-in Antenna: Easy Street’s NVM-4370 features a clean and simplified design integrating a built-in antenna, reducing set-up time and clutter. There are not additional wires or attachments to place on your car’s dashboard or rooftop. This integrated antenna design also makes taking Easy Street anywhere with you convenient and hassle-free.

Large 4.3″ Touch-Screen LCD: Easy Street’s 4.3″ touch-screen 16:9 LCD display allows you to view maps, photos and video clips in bright, vivid color. On this beautiful display, the navigation options and user menus are easy to see and select.

Video Input Terminal: With safety and convenience being so important, SANYO has truly offered that with the NVM-4370’s video input terminal. This unit is preprogrammed to search for a back-up camera when this feature is activated. In conjunction with the back-up camera installation a signal is sent to the NVM-4370 when plugged in to automatically display the camera feed. This allows you to have the safety of a back-up camera in your personal vehicle and still have a portable navigation unit to use when traveling in another vehicle.
