A disappointing unit : SIRIUS Sportster 4 Satellite Radio Receiver with Car Kit
Eager to get it, I ultimately ordered the new Sportster 4 online. It didn't take long for me to be profoundly disappointed in the unit.
The problem is with the Sportster's Fm converter: It's essentially worthless. I was unable to find a particular frequency that wasn't subject to some sort of interference. Even the frequencies I use with the Starmate Replay were picking up static and/or bursts of music from elsewhere. In fact, at the lower end of the Fm spectrum (the 88's and 89's) I got nothing. Zip. Nada. Even on the completely blank frequencies there was just nothing there. ultimately nearby the 90.1 range you would be able to make out whichever channel you were trying to listen to. The upper frequencies were "listenable," provided you were willing to put up with the interference.
I ultimately decided to hook up the old Starmate again and put the units through a head-to-head competition. I set both receivers to the same Fm frequency and the Starmate consistently overpowered the Fm transmitter from the Sportster. I've in fact tried the same experiment before, between the Starmate and an Xm unit, and the succeed should be one signal or other getting through, but with a lot of interference. The lowest line is that the Sportster's Fm converter is weak roughly to the point of being non-existent.
I don't know what succeed using a direct join together Fm modulator would have on this shortcoming.
The second problem is that the power and antenna cables join together directly to the back of the cradle, Not the sides. The end succeed is that the back of the radio is no longer a level surface, and you can no longer simply velcro the unit to the dashboard. It does come with that annoying standard-issue suction cup mount or a vent mount. I'm not a big fan of either mounting method, however.
On the plus side: If you are able to playback with either a cassette adapter or a direct join together cable, you will like the Sportster 4. It's a beautifully sleek seeing unit and the assorted controls are laid out well. The blue backlight is just a bit weak while the day, but unobtrusive at night.
Buying further cradles--whether for the house or other cars--makes arresting the radio from one location to other a snap since you don't have to deal with connecting and disconnecting assorted cables.
