Weird...  on this avic nex 6000

 

I'm not getting any TTS (street name) at all.  i can select it no problem and it prompts my selection fine..

 

But no matter which tts voice im choosing, it does not tell any street names ...  i tried every TTS voices in the list..  it just tells me to turn left or right..

 

is this normal ?

 

it does however mention highway number...

 

also the map is way outdated.  I know a few streets in my city that has either changed names or direction like 3 years ago.  and this avic map doesn't have that information...

My handhelded Garmin bough last spring (7 months ago) does......

 

I'm sorry but if this AVIC GPS works at intended. it is the worst i've seen.    Any help would be appreciated

I am not at my unit right now, but I think there is a setting in Nav to let you select how much data you want displayed/spoken. Maybe someone else can help out.

nope

 

I'm still not getting any street names.

 

I've set  Names and Numbers to ON

 

Is this another bad unit ?

ya a finaly found the hidden option

 

you have to activate Number ans Street in both lines.. native and foreign... they are two distinctive features..

 

I had native activated but i did not activate foreign one.

 

Now TTS works..
