Everyone who wants to get from one place to another and feels a map is the best way to find the route to travel. GPS have their place, but, a paper map is often the better way to find a route to travel. GPS is limited, and does have limitations. GPS and papers maps together is sometimes the better way to plot a direction. Not everyone has a GPS device.


Do you have to subscribe to gps service?

The signals that a GPS receiver or Sat Nav system uses to calculate its position are broadcast freely and globally by the GPS satellites orbiting earth 20,000Kms away. As there is no way for the GPS satellites to know who or what is receiving or using the signals that they broadcast, it would be impossible to charge people for their use. Much like free to air TV or radio. Subsequently, the GPS service is free. The hardware required to use it however will cost you.

Can a stolen GPS be tracked when turned on?

Since it's a receiver and generally doesn't have any form of two-way communications, I'd say most likely not. Best bet is to contact the manufacturer and ask them, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. Yep, you could not track a GPS device until it has a communication chip, like in cell phones. Have a look at this blog: http://www.eastmobiles.com


How can a gps system be blocked or jammed?

GPS signal jammers are portable devices that literally means gadgets that stop a GPS tracking device from receiving the signal that without which they cannot pick up their position. They emit their own signal at the frequency that GPS tracking devices use, which confuses or blocks other GPS signals.

Unfortunately, there are so many GPS units that the BEST way is to contact the manufacturer of the GPS unit. The best way is to email them. If you cannot find a solution this way, the best alternative that I have seen is a Universal GPS Dashboard Bean Bag Car Mount from overstock.com.

Does Radio Shack sell the Magellan GPS receiver?

According to their website they don't, but they sell a battery for the Megellan Roadmate. Perhaps its in stores (http://www.radioshack.com/search/index.jsp?kwCatId=&kw=magellan%20gps%20receiver&origkw=Magellan+GPS+receiver&sr=1). They do have plenty of GPS items on sale, though. Perhaps you'll find something else you'd want in there. If not, you can go to Magellan's website and order it from there. They offer free shipping and factory prices, so that may be the way to go regardless of RadioShack's stock (http://magellan.factoryoutletstore.com/?cid=6873&chid=1&gclid=CMSLzdzP3KkCFZV25QodA1LGXQ).
