Great Radio August 30, 2010
J. Moore (Miami, Fl)
This is my second plug and play that I have owned. My first one was about five years ago and much bigger! This one is very small and works great. With the powerconnect, it comes with everything you will need to install it with no trouble at all. Anyone can install this. Whether you want to mount it, or just sit it on your seat, it will work great with the plug in feature. The new jump feature, that will go to local traffic and weather is great because it doesn't change the channel until your city is starting.
Great radio, many features, I'm a big fan.
Eventually it's great August 18, 2010

When I received the Sportster 5 I had already watched the install video from Sirius, read all the reviews on Amazon, so I was set to go. Turns out they were all right. The install was easier than I had feared. Sliding the wire behind the molding on the rear window of my Chrysler Sebring was quite easy, and the routing through the trunk was a breeze. However like one reviewer wrote, another five feet of wire would not break them. The Sebring is a mid size car, I could of easily used the extra wire so I didn't have to pull up the carpet, angle the wire and cut ahole in the carpet just so I could reach the receiver. I installed mine on my passenger vent in the center of the car, very easy to do. As someone else had brought up, at my viewing angle wearing my polarized sunglasses does distort the LCD screen. Now as far as the power connect goes,everyone hit that nail on the head, you will not be happy with this install. After going through the procedure of finding all my FM stations that were not being used I put my best five into the programming. One day it would come in clear, the next I would be looking for another preset, Very Annoying! I'm not all that good with cars, but I did have a manual on my car and found out how to remove the bezel around my radio so I could pull out the radio enough to access the antenna. I bought the FM adapter for $20 and was ready to install it when I realized the ends on this did not match my Chrysler radio. Off to a auto,stereo,mag wheel,customizing shop and $30 later I had the correct adapters. Now life is good. Sound and reception are great, love the music without the commercials, and its great having my favorite bands pop up on the display whenever they are being played, not to mention my sports ticker updates running on the bottom of the display. As long as the radio lasts, I couldn't be happier
Easy pick... Great upgrade from my previous receiver. August 6, 2010

 Hardware Upgrade July 27, 2010

I've been a Sirius subscriber for about eight years. Got it initially for the NFL feed, but got hooked on the music and news stations. I only use it at home in a boombox system. Recently, my original unit (Orbiter version) died. Came to find that it had been discontinued. So time to upgrade...
So far, so good for the Sportster 5 - I got this version because I could add the Best of XM package (O & A in the AM). I like the improved displays and the ability to change colors. Allows for a Sports Ticker within the display so scores can scroll (you control the teams). Remote is much less bulky than what I had (about 1" x 3") and, finally, allows you to control volume. This version also gives ability to save and rewind/replay about 60 minutes worth of programming.
Based on other reviews I've read, I'm concerned about the life expectancy of the receiver. People report issues after a year, so I'll reserve judgement. I've no intention of installing in my car, so not qualified to offer an opinion on that portion. Instructions to install are straight forward though.
A must have for a news junkie on the road a lot, if it was not built in at the factory. July 25, 2010

A must have for a news junkie on the road a lot, if it was not built in at the factory. Easy to use but I had it professionally installed. The glue for the dash mount will never hold in the Texas heat so I used screws to secure it to the base of the dashboard. I bought a FM adapter from the installer as there was no AUX attachment on this car.
