This is by far the best satellite radio i've purchased, it put my 5yr old JVC model to shame... it does almost 25 different things my other radio never did. from Crutchfield.com This radio receiver worked great for the first 5 months in my truck. Now I have to use a rubber band to hold it to the docking mount..... from Crutchfield.com What's great about it:?display What's not so great:?weak transmitter "do not buy this product unless you plan to hard wire it to your car's antenna. the fm transmitter is so weak it doesn even transmit to the car's stereo. i decided to return the item and purchased a starmate 5, which works fine. from Bestbuy.com Had the Sportster 4 for 3+ yrs. then bought this. from Amazon.com I purchased this to replace my original Sportster radio. After failing to find a Sportster 4 version (which was selling for $40 -- only no one sold it anymore), I ponied up for the Sportster 5 ($130). 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 The Sportster 5 puts alll the other satelitte radios to shame, it's sleek has a great wallpaper screen which changes when selecting different stations. I also just purchased a boombox for the sportster and it makes the cookouts even more enjoyable. from Amazon.com I received this Sirius radio for my birthday and completely love it! It was very easy to install. from Amazon.com
