The Garmin RINO 530HCx - a new direction for the Garmin RINO series.

The Garmin Rino 530HCx is a waterproof FRS/GMRS radio plus GPS navigator that includes a barometric altimeter, electronic compass and NOAA weather radio in addition to the popular features of the Garmin Rino 520HCx - 5 watts of transmit power, a microSD card slot, brilliant color display and a high-sensitivity GPS receiver - so you'll never be lost again.

Pinpoint Your Position

With its high-sensitivity GPS receiver, the Garmin Rino 530HCx locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear — whether you're in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on the Garmin Rino 530HCx to help you find your way when you need it the most.

Find Your Friends

Like the rest of the Garmin Rino series, the Garmin Rino 530HCx offers a unique Position Reporting feature. Position Reporting lets you send your exact location to other Rino users in your group so that everyone can see your position on the map page. And, because the Garmin Rino is a standard FRS/GMRS radio, you can use it to communicate with any other conventional FRS/GMRS radio around.

Transmit with Power

The Garmin Rino 530HCx boasts a whopping 5 watts of transmit power (GMRS), which lets you contact others from up to 14 miles away (line of sight). In Canada, you can transmit at 2 watts over GMRS with a range of up to 8 miles.
