Does this mapping GPS receiver & FRS/GMRS radio deliver? Read on to find out.

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: Good GPS / mapping performance for a handheld unit; good 2-way radio; all in all, Garmin Rino 120 is an awesome accessory for any traveler.
Review: A mapping GPS receiver and a FRS / GMRS 2-way radio in a single small, rugged, waterproof (submersible) device would seem like a traveler's dream. But does it realize its potential in practical use? The short answer is "yes, for the most part."

Garmin Rino 120

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: So far, I'm very pleased with the GPS functions of this unit. Just need to check out the radio performance to say it's the best thing since sliced bread.
Review: This is an excellent unit for the hunter or avid outdoorsman! It picks up and holds onto sattelites better than most units I have seen. I've had about 5 different GPS's over the last few years and this is the coolest and best functioning one for...

Great unit(updated)

Date of Review:  Feb 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: Great gps. Tons of usable features
Review: I bought the 110 for hunting and hiking. I wasn't interested in the 120 due to cost and features i would never use. The 110 frs radio is pretty good. I can communicate with my buddy easily although we didn't test the range over 1 km.I chose the...

Good idea

Date of Review:  Jun 15, 2004
The Bottom Line: I'm not sure if I can recommend it. The radio is marginal, but they're customer service is excellent, which is worth a lot. So "maybe".
Review: GPS is great.

Radio has caused me lots of troubles. On first hunting trip, nobody could hear me, I thought the radio was crap, it was nearly a year old and I didn't have the receipt, but I called Garmin and they agreed to fix it. I sent it...

Two way comms and GPS for fishing - WOW!

Date of Review:  May 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: Don't have $3k to spend on marine electronics - how bout $500 for a two pack! Makes keeping track of loved ones easy.
Review: Garmin has been an industry leader in Global Positioning Service (GPS) for a long time. There really are only two at the retail, everyday consumer level that provide GPS, Garmin and Magellan. Now, Garmin has added two-way radio features to their...

A great concept in its second generation

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2005
The Bottom Line: A good buy, and a good concept if it serves your needs. A separate purchase might be more practical for most.
Review: My other reviews on GPSs focus on Magellans, which I consider to be a superior product with better satellite signal processing. That said, the Garmin Rhino 120 has won me over with the basic concept. A FRS/GMRS radio with dozens of great features...

Good GPS, lousy radio.

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: Unless you don't need the radio I would stay away. Wait for someone else to release a like unit.
Review: Bought this unit with a friend to use for hunting. I wish I had read some reviews first. We found that after a somewhat steep learning curve, the GPS functions were pretty good. The only GPS issue we had any trouble with was occasional signal loss...

A Rock Solid, Dependable and widely used piece of Hardcore Gear!

Date of Review:  May 28, 2007
Review: I own both the Rino 110 and Rino 120. Both models are light weight, easy to use and are PACKED with extra features that I did not expect. The Rino 120 has extra memory for more detailed mapping and memory. I live in Southern Utah and spend most if...

Great product not ready for market.

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2002
The Bottom Line: Wait until they work out the bugs
Review: What a great idea, an FRS radio and GPS in one small package. The GPS has a small screen but the zoom makes up for that. Garmin has done a great job making the GPS as simple to use as any I have tried. The Rino uses a Click stick (joy stick ) to...

Great product, misleading advertising

Date of Review:  Jan 31, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great product, inaccurate product description.
Review: They lied in their advertising. The unit only transmits at 1 watt, not 2 watts. 2 watts is required for talking 5 miles. Motorola Distance transmits 2 watts and claims 5 mile range, how can Garmin make the same claim while only transmitting at 1...
