Amazon.com Review
Amazon.com Review Imagine a cross between a walkie talkie and a Star Trek communicator, that's the best way to understand the Garmin's Rino 110. Not just a powerful GPS receiver, this two-way radio can even track your friends and transmit your location to others. These innovative features and low price makes it ideal whether hiking, hunting, playing paintball or just checking up on your kids.  | - 100 meters: Accuracy of the original GPS system, which was subject to accuracy degradation under the government-imposed Selective Availability (SA) program.
- 15 meters: Typical GPS position accuracy without SA.
- 3-5 meters: Typical differential GPS (DGPS) position accuracy.
- Less than 3 meters: Typical WAAS position accuracy.
| About the size of a small cordless phone, the bright-yellow and black Rino 110 has two fixed antennas coming out of the top. One antenna lets you talk at up to two miles using 14 FRS (Family Radio Service) channels. It also can communicate across 8 GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) channels, offering up to 5 miles of range, though this requires an FCC license. The other antenna offers the advanced WAAS-enabled GPS tracking you'd expect from Garmin (see chart at right). Using the large 160 x 160 pixel backlit display you can save up to 20 different routes and 500 waypoints in the unit's 1 MB of memory. Plus, in addition to the built-in cities database, you can even upload maps from Garmin's Points of Interest CD with an optional adapter. The fun really starts when you combine these two features. The Rino can transmit its location to others at up to two miles and track up to 50 contacts simultaneously. So, for instance, you can display a map on the screen with the names and locations of all of your friends, or select a friend and have the Rino guide you to their location. The Rino's graphical interface makes it easy to control its myriad functions with a 5-way cursor, similar to those found on laptop keyboards, which lets you move quickly across the menu screens. This waterproof device runs on 3 AAA batteries. Once you use the Rino 110, it's hard to imagine purchasing a two-way radio without GPS functionality, the two features go so well together. --Ken Feinstein Pros: - Two-way radio with GPS functions
- FRS and GMRS support
- Waterproof
- Large backlit display
Cons: - 1 MB memory not upgradeable

Product Description
Garmin Rino 110 GPS / FRS / GMRS. The Rino 110 is a GPS-enabled handheld that integrates radio functionality to provide 2-way communications. It's waterproof, can send communications up to 2 miles using FRS channels, 5 miles using GMRS channels, and can "beam" your exact location to another Rino user using "position reporting." And because the Rino 110 had standard FRS / GMRS capabilities, you can talk to friends or family who own conventional FRS / GMRS radios. Get the specs: WAAS-enabled GPS receiver; 22 communication channels: 1-14 FRS, 15-22 GMRS; 38 sub-audible squelch codes per transmission channel for privacy; Transmission distance of up to 2 miles using FRS, up to 5 miles with GMRS (using GMRS frequency in the U.S. requires a FCC license); External voice activation (VOX); Ergonomic design for one-handed operation, with call, press-to-talk (PTT) and page mode buttons on the side, power / backlighting button on top, and volume and zoom buttons in front; Unique 5-way cursor for channel selection and volume adjustment in FRS / GMRS mode, and quick map planning, entering and selecting functions in GPS mode; Built-in worldwide city point database, with 1 MB of internal memory for downloading additional points-of-interest data from a MapSource "Points of Interest" CD Also includes wrist strap, belt clip, user's guide and quick reference guide.

 Weak Transmission and Reception Capabilities October 20, 2009
Jeff (East Coast, USA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The unit is quite functional, though when used in a rugged wooded setting, such as hunting, the reception and transmission capabilities are lacking. I was recently elk hunting and the other members in the group had the fancier Garmin Rhino GPS units, which significantly outperformed the Rhino 110. I bought on price point, thinking that I might lose out on some of the bells and whistles of the other higher end units that I wouldn't ultimately need, but in the end the 110 didn't have the horsepower and resulted in a number of instances where I couldn't communicate with the other group members and I was separated by less than two miles in a relatively unobstructed environment.
 Great Product! March 26, 2009

I highly recommend the Garmin 110. It is user friendly and has great features!
Best buy on the internet February 24, 2009
Dave (Massachusetts, USA)
This was the best buy on the internet, have many friends that paid much more for the same model. The Garmin Rino 110 is easy to set up and use, can't wait to try it out. Bought many products from Amazon, delivery was always quick and on time, never had a problem.
Excellent December 31, 2008
Mark Martinez (Santa Fe, NM USA)
Directly from Amazon is the way to order. I received my Rino within a matter of days. I would have no problem purchasing from Amazon again.
Not sure about this unit ! October 30, 2008

I thought this is what I wanted, now I'm not so sure.
I bought it for a few reasons;
I sail and wanted to be able to call for help if I needed to but there is no chanel 16 (help channel)on this unit.
I also wanted the gps so I could find my way back in the fog. despite reading the two booklets and playing with the unit I'm still cant seem to figure out how to use it.
So, I'm now looking for a proper marine radio so I can call for help.
I guess this old sea dog is just too old to figure out this new tech stuff
