Review on Garmin GLO Portable GPS Receiver with GLONASS Technology and Vehicle Power Cable by Guillo Tilden

Before: I drive with a coating that blocks RF (and UV) radiation, so my Android phone kept losing GPS lock. It was funny at times: google maps thought I was on the wrong side of the freeway and gave me directions to turn back, then thought I was on a back road and was completely confused. This was frustrating at times, especially when I was looking for a detour in heavy traffic, for example. After: I installed the Bluetooth GPS app (it's awesome), connected the GLO, turned on the dummy GPS provider and yes! No more GPS tracking problems. Zip, no. Travel hundreds of miles along the east coast, through the wilderness, etc., no problem with GPS. (Sometimes it's good to download offline maps and directions, but that's easy.) I've considered drastic solutions, but for what I think is a very reasonable price, I have a painless solution. If you have a car with RF coverage and want to use your phone for navigation, this is a must. Easy recommendation.
