yes, you don't need an antenna to hear navigation instructions. You do need speakers. This device has a mount that includes speakers.

Yes. Without will give you 35 miles of range. With, 50 miles of range. Sometimes when you are really close to the towers, you wont want to use the amplifier because it will over-amplify your signal and you wont be able to receive the channel. LaMar TimmonsWinegard Digital Communications

I am sure it is. i downloaded offline maps with the google maps app (latest version allows you to do that), and that would allow you to use navigation even without cellular service. It will only work if you have map data for the area you are in.

Tom, I believe it can be connected to an external antenna. I looked at one at "The GPS Store" and on Amazon, I think, but I communicated with a friend on a ship about 20 miles away this morning and it was like he was standing next to me...although his radio was an Icom with an antenna about 70 feet in the air. I was standing in my kitchen. So, to make a short story long, I think there is an external antenna that will fit on the handheld.

The unit does not have a radio. But you can download a radio app and listen to the radio as long as you are connected to Wi-Fi.

No antenna is required but being near to your wireless router should help. Hopefully there are not a lot of obstructions and especially no steel walls in the way.

You don't necessarily need those! I don't use the wires. I get great reception inside a metal trailer at the bottom of a valley by simply putting the Kaito next to my radio. You need to turn the dial and test for reception, if it doesn't work keeping moving the Kaito around, turn the dial to test until it pulls in the signal. I once put it on top of the radio, where ever it takes to make it work.I sometimes take the Kaito with me around my farm to set it near my transistor so I can enjoy listening while I'm planting. (Check your radio instructions for connecting an external antenna). Happy listening!

mine works well without a additional antenna - it will depend on how strong your FM signal is.

A directional external antenna mounted outdoors away from trees and obstructions would help if you are trying to receive Denver stations. I would avoid purchasing an external amplifier for the antenna, as it would likely only increase noise. You probably want your radio placed near a window as well. Knowing approximately how powerful the individual stations you are trying to pick up would be helpful, as it would give you an idea of how much work you have ahead of you.

Yes, the you can listen to any audio source while in navigation mode. The unit does not speak the street names, displays street names on screen.

CL: If you buying this item used, makeSure it has an antenna as well as the adapter and manual. Without an antenna, you can't pick up The satellite signal. B Mc

long time since i had this - and i sent it back as it was too complicated to set up (their fault) and not really what i needed (my fault). from memory it worked without an external antenna, but the other answers seems to say NO, so i could well be wrong. sorry i cannot be more helpful.

yes, you need antenna and antenna is not included. You could by a very cheap rabbit antenna. Do not buy any costly antenna, because it will not make any difference.

Hello i'm not sure I never tried that but I know that when i'm talking on the headset and the gps is on I can hear the directions in the background. I hope this helps you somewhat. Thanks for your question.
