This Belkin XM home antenna provides about the same signal gain as the original Delphi home antenna, but it is only about 2/3 the size and weight, making it an attractive option for travel. The actual metal plug configuration is, or would be, compatibile with all my various XMSR configuations here. Here comes the "but:"

In typical corporate bonehead style, Belkin has chosen a 90-degree plug for its antenna, whereas the original Delphi home antenna uses a straight plug. Why would they do that? My Delphi XM2go home dock has plenty of room for the right-angle plug, so maybe that's as far as they looked, it fits in there in a sorta snazzy-looking way. It also fits my Delphi SkyFi home dock, although barely (for the same reason), as well as my Altec Lansing inMotion iMX2 mobile speaker system for the XM2go. However, it does *not* fit into my Delphi portable boom box for the Delphi SkyFi; that unit has a cylindrical black collar that extends well above the actual jack, and although the actual plug is surely compatible, the Belkin F5X003's 90-degree plug housing will not extend far enough into the collar to reach the jack. Real dumb. Otherwise, I'd probably have given it four or maybe five stars.

Adding this to my 'boom box' xm radio was just what I wanted. Now I can get better reception without ballancing the radio on a shelf, a railing or a window sill. Nice long cord and great sensitivity.

After slicing my original cord by accident doing lawn work, I was at a loss as to where to find this part. I searched many companies, even the XM store. Prices were outrageous. I found this vendor on Amazon with decent pricing and ratings. I order frequently on Amazon for books and have had no problems. I ventured to ordering other hard to find merchandise and came across this vendor. Did my own research, just to check for legit and my own peace of mind. They are legit and located in Florida. Fast shipping, very fair cost, and product was listed as used, but I found it to be in very good, almost new, condition. Enjoying my satellite radio again. Thank You!!Belkin F5X003 Home Antenna for XM
