I couldn't have been more disappointed. Whereas my old Sportster was crystal clear using the FM transmitter, the Sportster 5 returned static 95% of the time. After doing some research, it looks like the FCC forced Sirius to comply with certain regulations that limit the power of their FM transmitter signal. The original Sportster has a signal that was very strong (evidently so strong that other people who just happen to be tuning into or by 88.7 or some other random non-station could hear your Sirius radio program). from Amazon.com Love Howard Stern, so I got this radio to listen to him. This is my first experience with a Sirius radio and I've been pleasantly surprised. Very easy to use. from Amazon.com I bought a Sirius Sportster car kit a year an a half ago. It's a slightly different unit, but the sound quality (set by the level of compression of the data stream) will be about the same. from Amazon.com Got this to replace another Sirius receiver that died. This is a nice unit and does everything I wanted it to do EXCEPT reliable FM transmitter performance. from Amazon.com I received this Sirius radio for my birthday and completely love it! It was very easy to install. from Amazon.com Everyone I know loves this product and sirius radio is here to stay. Whatever you do, avoid the aggravation of having to call customer service. from Amazon.com This was 3 months ago and no credit has appeared. Whatever you do, please don't give these guys your credit card number. This goes for both Sirius and XM now that they have merged. They run a dishonest business. from Amazon.com -I'm Hooked,most of you will be too, on the SIRIUS Sportster 5 Satellite Radio Receiver with Vehicle Kit. My Brother got me hooked on SIRIUS,and the Sportster 5 w/vehicle kit is great! from Amazon.com I have had Sirius service for about a year now, and love it. The customer service could be improved, but I gave the 5 star rating based on the Sportster 5 unit itself, not the customer service. from Amazon.com The radio is great with the Sirius Boom Box, except the "home" antenna has to be placed outside the window to work. I am not certain how well it will handle weather and wind. from Amazon.com
