Better than Sirius low profile

Aug 2, 2007 - By Gary A. Willet (Delaware, USA)

I have gone through two "Sirius low profile" antennas and they only last 6 months to a year before they start to lose signal and eventually quit working. This antenna has a srtonger signal from the start and a slightly "beefier" design. Hopefully it will last a long long time. I hope this helps someone pick this over the low profile design.

Good buy

Sep 7, 2007 - By Ronnie Greer (Louisville, KY)

I was in a bind. I had the original antenna go out on me. I called Sirius and thankfully they were not in stock with what came with my S50. So i got on Amazon and read reviews. It looks like everyone has issues with their original antenna. The 14105 Antenna was a cheap way to go to get what i needed. I needed an antenna quick because i was traveling on vacation and needed it ASAP. I took a chance on this antenna (was a little nervous, I thought it looked generic) I hooked the antenna up the same way as the other and it worked great and continues to work smoothly. I would recommend buying the 14105 Antenna before trying to look for a more expensive model

fine

Feb 15, 2007 - By FVEE48 (Central PA USA)

This little magnetic antenna
works fine. No fuss, no muss,
just put it on your roof,
run the wire to the Sirius
radio unit, and bingo,
superior reception...
I have had it for about a
year, don't even think about it,
just use it over and over again.
No problems.

Just what we needed

Aug 22, 2007 - By simpleasthat (Left Coast, United States)

After buying another car and only having one Sirius receiver (Starmate Replay) and car kit it seemed we either had to not listen to Sirius in one vehicle, move the antenna back and forth between vehicles, or buy another receiver with car kit. I was not about to pay for another receiver subscription and receiver, and moving the antenna back and forth was a hassle. So we decided to simply buy another antenna for the other vehicle and move the receiver and car power adapter back and forth which has proved to be an simple solution.

The best satellite radio antenna of them all

Oct 10, 2007 - By K. Orr (Iowa)

I have had Sirius radio for years now and owned many items including multiple antennas. This one wins hands down- either for your car or your home. This is the 2nd antenna of this kind I own, this one is used with my home docking kit, the other on the car of course. The wire is quite thin, so it's easily put into window/door seals and also can be put just about anywhere and will pick up a signal, ie: on the ground, the roof, placed on the edge of your deck,ect. It's also much smaller than all the other "home antennas" which for the most part never work anyway. This small antenna will pick up strong signals anywhere even near a building/structure.
