5.0 out of 5 stars Delphi SA10224Skyfi3 Car Kit for XM Satellite Radio , July 19, 2008

By	D. Mayo "Mayo" (Shelby Twp, MI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am really impressed with the Skyfi3 XM Satellite Radio. It is lightweight, the right size to fit in you shirt pocket or pants pocket and has the right functionality to serve its purpose. The sound quality is good with enough volume to overcome most external sounds, in particularly for me, a lawn mower. Its mobility allows it to be used in your home, car and outside walking or jogging. You have to purchase the accessories for the home and outside functionality. I also purchased the home kit since the SKyFi3 comes with a car kit. I purchased the wireless router in order to transmit the signal from the south side of my house to a location inside my house. It is absolutely necessary to have clear view of the southern sky in order to receive the satellite signal. It has worked wonderfully after setting up the antennae outside in a covered plastic container. The antenna is supposed to be weatherproof but I am not taking any chances. It took me about 2 hours to read the directions for each device and get everything working. Even the car installation was very easy and worked once all the parts were connected. I have had one glitch with the device. I tried to turn it on one day after not using it for a week and it wouldn't come on. After much anxiety I read the manual and it explained how to reset the device. I like most it ability to set up recording schedules for your XM stations. These can then be sorted by various means to access the recordings. The device has many functions and for the $26.99 including S&H for the car kit it was well worth it. I highly recommend this device and its accessories.

3.0 out of 5 stars XM radio good for car and home, not so much as a mobile device, January 11, 2009

By	James R. Moore - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Nice radio for use in the car and home, not so useful for mobile use as the antenna/headset combination is large and a little uncomfortable to wear. Also the battery life is extremely short when using the headset/antenna combination. Also the FM transmitter is not as powerful as in earlier XM radio models so could not use it to wirelessly connect to the car radio as I had in the past. Need to have cradle installed and radio physically connect to the antenna input of the car radio. This required extra expense for labor and parts that did not come with the car adapter kit.
