Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Audiovox SIR-CK3 Sirius Satellite Radio Vehicle Kit is a sleek, low-profile mobile docking station intended for use with the Audiovox SIR-PNP3 Sirius Radio Receiver. This kit is equipped with a cigarette lighter power adapter and an adjustable mounting bracket for easy, convenient placement in your vehicle. It also includes a small magnetic roof mount antenna, guaranteeing exceptional reception of Sirius' 120-channel satellite radio network.

For additional connectivity, the SIR-CK3 features a 3.5-millimeter jack for direct connect to aftermarket radios via RCA input. This connectivity requires an optional SAT-RCA cable that is not included with the SIR-CK3.

What's in the Box
SIR-CK3 docking station, mounting base, DC power adapter, antenna, audio cable, hardware kit, and installation manual.

Product Description

The Audiovox SIRCK3 car kit includes everything you need to connect the Audiovox SIRPNP3 SIRIUS tuner to your in-dash receiver: a docking station, a DC power (cigarette lighter) adapter, a line out jack, a stereo patch cable (mini-plug to RCA), and a roof-mount antenna. The tuner mounts firmly in the docking station, where power and signal connections are made; the docking station's base is designed to mount securely to your dash. The roof-mount antenna attaches to your vehicle's roof with its powerful magnetic base. Use the patch cable to send signal from the cradle's output jack to your receiver's auxiliary input. (If your receiver doesn't have an aux input, the Audiovox tuner can broadcast straight to your radio with its built-in FM transmitter.) The SIRPNP3 SIRIUS tuner gives you the freedom to listen to SIRIUS programming both at home and on the road. Simply transfer the tuner (with its remote control) between your car and the home kit -- since you're only using one tuner, you pay just one low subscription fee!

I have had the same issues with my Sirius SIRCK3 Mobile dock... I have had it for about 8 months and then one day the Mobile dock just stopped working. The one for inside the house works fine so I know it is the car adapter... and I really like the receiver, but the mobile dock is a real bummer. $50 down the drain!

3.0 out of 5 stars Positioning and Power cord problems, August 18, 2006

When I installed this, I had difficulty getting the Sirius unit positioned properly to view it from the driver's seat. I then figured out (it wasn't in the instructions) how to "click" it into different positions, using enough force, it seemed, that I thought the plastic would break.

It worked OK for about a year, then stopped working. I knew it was the car kit because my Sirius unit still worked in the home kit. I cannibalized parts from the home kit, which is very similar to the car kit, until I located the problem which was the cigarette lighter power cord. Broken conductor, probably, as the fuse was OK. The wires in the cord are quite thin. I went to Radio Shack and they have a power cord that worked and looks to be of higher quality, the same guage wire as most of your lamp cords at home. With a polarity adapter, it now works again.

Hard to find older model accessories at a good price. I have several vehicles and needed one more Audiovox SIR-CK3 Vehicle Kit for SIR-PNP3 Sirius Satellite Radio Receiver. Found this one and it was being sold at an excellent price. Was expecting used, but when item arrived it was in unopened never used condition.
