It's not mandatory to install RDS-TMC via TTActivator, the regular Navcore should work out of the box as long as TomTom has an agreement/license with a traffic provider in your country and your device came pre-installed with the traffic license file (mctx.dat).
If you use TTActivator however, you will have more control over which provider will be selected by the traffic receiver if there is more than one available. For example, you may choose to disable the free traffic services. TTActivator can also support more countries/providers than what is normally allowed by TomTom because it combines service data from Garmin and iGO as well.
Most NAV3 devices come pre-installed with "tmc_lowend" which is a traffic license file (mctx.dat) from 2011. Here the comparison chart between that and TTActivator.

TomTom go live 1005 and rds-tmc antenna Hello i bought an rds-tmc antenna for my tomtom go live 1005. i wanted to know if to make the antenna work just connect it to the navigator or should i configure rds-tmc with ttactivator? now when i open tomtom traffic i get an error message: error code 107 which should concern a problem related to the sim. now i hope that when i connect the antenna to the navigator the tomtom traffic menu will open. if it doesn't work, just install rds-tmc with ttactivetor? Sorry for my english. Rating: 5Last edited by master131; 13th February 2022 at 01:06 PM.

ok from what you tell me it is better to install all services via tomtom activator. once installed how can I configure these services on the navigator? do i always go to live services / tomtom traffic or do i have to go to some other menu?

Yes, TTActivator will unlock much more traffic services if you enable all the services and install it to the device.
The configuration options for TomTom Traffic can be changed through the TomTom Traffic menu (under Services) or by pressing the bar on the right-side of the screen when the RDS-TMC receiver is connected.

I have installed everything and I am trying on the road, as a configuration of the services I think I have left them all active, since if I want to try to configure them, the manual configuration option comes out. it's correct? did I leave all the services active?
Sorry for my english

Leaving all of them active means the RDS-TMC receiver will connect to the first radio station it finds with any activated service.
For example, in Germany, there are 18 services available:
ANTENNE 1, ANTENNE B, ANTENNE N, BASt, DLF, FFH, HERE Traffic, Hit 1, HR, MDR, NDR, RBB, SR, SWR, TMC BDR, TMC-BR, TMCRB, WDR
However, you might only prefer the traffic information only from HERE Traffic because it is a paid service with better traffic data. In that case, you have to uncheck the ones you don't want the receiver to connect to inside TTActivator and install the RDS-TMC configuration again.
