Customer Reviews

This other reviewer has no idea what he is talking about
This item was released WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY before the XM sirius merger. Meaning this product has nothing to do with any agreements. Not only did the other reviewer put no input on the device itself, but Basically only stated he wanted it cheaper... A.K.A., something for nothing. The radio is still the best availible, comes with the ability to rewind and pause your current channel, much like Tivo... just for the radio. You can store your favorite sports teams so you can be updated with scores, as well as game times. Considering the price, and the features it has, this is still, in my opinion, the best radio that is out there. The other reviewer is unfair, and obviously just wanted to get something for almost nothing and expect amazing things. Also The merger has nothing to do with the actual product, very biast opinion.

Good Product, be mindful of connection
This is a great choice if you're a new Sirius subscriber. The radio with a big screen/LCD type look is a waste of money if you live up north where the cold weather can cause the screen to freeze. The "pause" capability is exactly like a DVR/Tivo in that you can take a call or whatever and not lose a joke, part of a song, etc. My only point of caution is your connection type. I'm using an AUX input and have some trouble with static. Sirius is providing great customer service though by sending me a direct FM adapter that should alleviate the problem.

not as good as older radios
I replaced a 3 year starmate model with this newer one. To my suprise it would not use the same open radio setting as my 3 older models(88.1). According to Sirius tech support the newer radios by FCC ruling do not transmit with same power as older models causing stactic and signal going in and out as you travel. I attached antenna extender as provided and it helped some. According to tech support next step was to by fm booster to attached directly to radio. Too much trouble for too little results.
