The GNS TrafficBoxplus FM9BT-C Receiver is the optimum extension for portable navigation systems with TMC function, so that time-consuming and annoying traffic obstructions soon belong to the past

Würselen, the 10th August 2009. With the GNS TrafficBoxplus FM9BT-C Receiver the company Global Navigation Systems GNS – GmbH presents its latest RDS/TMC- Receiver.
