Rating: - Makes XM mobile in the home - but not portable
XM reception inside buildings can be frustrating - especially for those of us living outside the range of the terrestial repeaters in many large cities. This repeater setup gives us mobility in an apartment or modest house (even two stories).
It is important to understand that this system repeats the XM digital signal on a different (900 MHz) frequency than that used by the satellites and the urban ground stations mentioned above. This means that the XM radio can't pick up the repeater signal directly. Each radio will need its own attached 900 MHz antenna, and will need to be ... Read More
Rating: - The unit works, it feels a little cheap, but looks nice.
If you're an XM junkie and just have to have your XM where ever you wander in your house, then you need this, and a bunch of home cradles for your reciever of choice. It allows you to place a single antenna for best reception, and rebroadcast thet signal throughout the house. Not sure what the range is, but it worked ok in a small house for a friend.
Rating: - Works well, but range is disappointing
The repeater works really well and eliminates the need to run wires from a south-facing window, but the range is not as far as advertised. At 20', it loses one bar of signal strength, compated to if the antenna was hooked directly to the XM radio. If I put the receiver in a cabinet 20' from the repeater, it does not work at all.
Rating: - Repeater does exactly what it is meant to do, repeat.
The Delphi XM repeater works exactly as it should. Install is as simple as plugging it in, and aiming the sat antenna (that you must already have from a home hit).
Rating: - Does what it's suppopsed to do.
Too bad the xm radio doesn't work in my house. I needed to buy a repeater. It works.
