When the government approved the XM/Sirius merger, they did so on the condition that they provide an a la Carte option to subscribers. The Starmate 5 is the only radio that is capable of a la Carte service. However, its price is way high for the features it has. This is an attempt by XM/Sirius to circumvent their responsibility under the merger agreement. The company must provide a less expensive radio for the a la carte service to comply with the merger agreement requirements. If companies like this would put more thought into satisfying their current and potential customers, they would not have to use deceptive tactics like this. I wish the government would step in and fine them for this latest tactic.

I think Starmate Five alacart is good receiver, other than very limited FM MODULATER so plug in Cassette adaptor recomended, or direct. Some bad as no free change alowed only programming once is free. Then Five $’s to add or delete. Again this is a Sirius Problem which I recomend they stop.

Luckily I kept my starmate 5 because my sportster 5 went dead on me and it’s only a year old, my old starmate 5 is almost 2 yrs old but it still works great without any issues.

The Sirius St5tk1 unit I purchased does not produce an FM signal even though the instruction booklet says it will.Without the FM signal the unit is useless to me.The box says return it to Sirius.Sirius says the problem is in the dock. Sirius sends a new dock still no signal. Back on the phone with Sirius I ask to send it back for a refund and get the run around from Sirius and finally they refuse saying I should return it to Amazon.com who refuses to take it back because I’ve exceeded the 30 day return limit! Now I’m stuck holding the bill for the Sirius defect.Other folks seem to be having the same problem. Time for a recall Sirius !

This is much better than the radio I had before this (that was stolen). I love the ability to pause.
