Rhino 120 April 1, 2008
Great GPS/FRS radio combination. Screen may be hard to view in some light conditions. Great way to see location of other 120 users in your group.
 Survived 2 Military Deployments March 6, 2008
I bought one of the first ones on the market, took it to Afghanistan twice and it broke on the last day when the belt clip snapped in the cold and it fell hard on a concrete flight line. Garmin gave me a new one under warranty, my fault and was willing to pay but they insisted I get a new one. Thank you Garmin, and why I will continue to buy many of these. Great size, monochrome screen is night vision compatible. Audio is loud and will use most Motorola accessories. This unit works on three AA batteries that can be had anywhere, so it is the one I take with me when out and about. Radio does not work as well as a dedicated unit would but being able to send your location to another unit makes it fill a niche. If you are keeping track of many users in the field this is a good thing. I use a soft case made for a Garmin GPS 12. Buttons are easy to use and fills the hand like a radio should. Great radio and GPS, I use this one the most of all when not navigating the streets. Complements other Garmin units with similar features and operation.
Great! February 8, 2008
Much better than the 110 (it's worth the extra money). I use mine for hunting purposes only and absolutely love it. No complaints.
great secondary unit January 20, 2008
I own a Rino 520 with optional software. I bought the Rino 120 for my elderly Dad who's not so into the high-techie stuff. For us this combo works extremely well for hunting, etc. He uses it just for the radio feature which works well, has good range, and has good clarity. With my 520 I can tell him where each of us are and our proximity. Love this technology! As for quality: My 520 screen has blanked out occasionally (rarely lately)and will come back on after a power off-on cycle, the rubber covering over the antennas wasn't glued down properly (will fix it myself). The 120 hasn't had any problems. The Rino 100 series are a good radio with wonderful features.
Great device! August 30, 2007

I purchased two Rino 120's through Amazon. I am very happy with them.
I tested the radios in thick woods with gradual sloping hills. I was able to get about one-half mile clear communications between the two radios. The peer to peer position reporting feature worked perfectly, as well as the GPS features.
The advertised "up to 5 mile range" etc. you see on radios like these only happens under perfect conditions which nobody is likely to ever encounter. Knowing this, I wasn't disappointed. The half mile range will do fine for my use.
I was a bit disappointed with the lack of detail in the Topo map software, but it is still servicable.
All in all, a good product.
