Just bought a new nuvi 660

Read in various forums that there seems to be an issue with underpowered fm transmission causing static when listening to the unit in your stereo system.

Since the nuvi 660 has an earphone jack - would it be possible to connect the gps unit directly to the stereo using an auxilary connection on the stereo itself.

something like this setup:

Is there a way to manually enter (by way of POI, I assume) my home location?

My C340 is not finding the correct location for my home.

Other than that, I am most pleased with the product.

What is the SD slot used for on the C340 ??
Thanks

Is there a max size SD card the Nuvi will accept? Before I go out and buy a card, I want to make sure I dont get too big of one. I know some electronics, like cameras will only support up to a certain size. I cant find any info posted on this from Garmin.

I have been experimenting successfully with adding Custom POI to my Quest2. In doing so, I have maxed out the memory.

There are MANY POIs that came with the unit and I wonder if anyone knows if it is possible to remove those original POI and totally customize the unit?

Thanks,

Jim

Garmin lovers, any of you using external antenna?
What is the experience like? Is it worth it?
Does it give you better reception in bad places like heavy woods or indoors (in a garage)?

I updated to version 3 somewhere around 21st of December. I paired two cell phones to the Nuvi. Pairing is a real b***ch but once paired, both cell phones work great. (I use bluetooth headset and wife uses Nuvi, if wife is not around, I turn off headset and Nuvi automatically links to my phone).

Hi all! Thanks to all for the fantastic information. I received a nuvi 660 for Christmas. Awesome GPS! I have read on some of the posts here that POI's can and can not be stored on sd cards. If they can, how is this done?

Since I'm not planning to use Audible, can I rename the button on my screen? Does anyone know how much memory is devoted to this? Can the software be removed to allow other file types or is that not necessary? Does Garmin have a delete program?

I'm a little confused about where to store my ever growing POI file. Can it stay on the SD card or does it have to be stored in the unit's memory? Right now I have a poi.gpi file on both. Is there a limit to what the device itself will hold? (I'm sure there is.) I have a Nuvi200. Thanks....

Hi:
I loaded a number of poi from rhode island onto my sd card in the nuvi and when it asked if I wanted to load them so that they would be there when card removed, I said yes. I don't see any extra categories, I added beaches, lighthouses and general attractions. Where would I find the custom ones in the nuvi 200?
Thanks, Patsy C.

I can pair the 660 with the 700p, complete with the phone book. My problem is that when I turn on the 660 the devices won't pair until I "wake up?" the 700p. The phone is on but the Palm function off. As soon as I activate the Palm function the devices pair. Does anyone have a solution?

How do I turn off the MapSource waypoints? I was playing around with my new nuvi 350, and downloaded mapsource. Now it's got all these extra waypoints turned on that slow down the map drawing quite a bit. Thanks for the help.

I am new to this website and was curious if there are any POIs for the Kansas City metro area?

How do you Create a Playlist in nuvi 350?

I am trying to locate the address 167 lotus drive indianapolis in 46032, but all my c330 will show is 167 lotus road which is incorrect. It autopopulates I need to know how I can get that address correct?

Nuvi 650. I was viewing some pages of icons on the device and now I can't get back to them. How do I view all the symbols/icons on the device?

Hello All.

I'm new here (obviously). I received a Garmin C340 for Christmas from my Mom. Actually, it's a gift to share with the fiancée too.

I used it for the first time yesterday while traveling to my aunt's house. It's somewhere I've been before, and the c340 took me the way that I normally go.

I was very pleased.

How do I delete a single POI from the many I have saved? I know the POI loader allows for deletes, but that is removes all of them.

Hello,
Does anyone know how to do a hard reset on a nuvi 350
I have tried the little button under the antena and I have tried pre booting,rebooting and know I am thinking about giving it the boot
