Matches OEM February 27, 2009 T Brick (WI) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Product was exactly the same as the original that came with my XM2go. Great price, arrived quickly.
Works with Sirius also. August 8, 2009 K. Schneider (Otsego, MN USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This will also work with many Sirius radios also.
I am using a Starmate Replay radio. If it fits in the jack, it should work.
Cheap and it works on my Sirius October 3, 2009 D. Pender (PA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered this for my 2nd vehicle adapater so that I didn't have to move everything from one car to the other. I have a Sirius sportster and it works perfectly with it in it's vehicle adapter. Well worth the price compared to the 3x more expensive antenna from the sirius site.

It's an antenna. It replaced one that became erratic in reception.
It works perfectly on my older XM Portable Radio and arrived pronto.
great for sirius, too December 11, 2009 J. Douglas (Falls Church, VA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The antenna finally died on my 5 year old Sirius radio ... replacement "sirius" antennas are more expensive than those for XM, especially this Belkin and, frankly, have they received poor reviews for durability.
I particularly like the right angle connector for the back of the radio, since I think my old antenna died from continued flexing of the cable at that point. The new cable is fairly flexible, but mine was hard to unravel without a tangle and seemed eager to develop kinks -- take your time and avoid sharp bends and kinks, they might reduce performance.
I think my old antenna gave me 3 bars (of 3) most of the time. With this antenna, I get a solid 3 bars with a clear sky, and fluctuation between 2 and 3 on tree lined residential streets. The signal only drops out with a long under pass. Performance, in other words, is quite adequate despite this antenna's tiny size.
I took a chance since it had worked with Sirius radios for other reviewers. But, it makes sense that the same antenna would work for both systems -- the frequencies are almost the same, at 2320-2332.5 Mhz for Sirius and 2332.5-2345 for XM. No surprise the manufacturers all use the same connectors, etc., etc., -- it's cheaper that way.
