    According to the Garmin site, 2559LMT comes with the '3D Traffic' receiver i.e. GTM60 in NA:

    That's the former name of what Garmin now calls 'HD Digital Traffic':

    The HD Digital Traffic service in NA is delivered by HD Radio via the GTM60 traffic receiver. This is supplemented by FM traffic service as it's a dual HD/FM receiver. The equivalent in EU is GTM70 which is a dual DAB/FM receiver. GTM60 cannot receive DAB and GTM70 cannot receive HD Radio signals, but either of them can receive FM Traffic in another area if it's free or a paid local subscription is added. Or go here: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].

    So if you want to receive DAB traffic in EU You must use a GTM70:
