 This is an excellent replacement antenna for the XM radio micro mobile antenna. As good as or better than original martie 9, 2010
Eric Nichols (Phx, AZ)
The original antenna had a worn out plug that went into the side of my XM radio. I was glad to see that I did not need to buy a whole kit just to get the micro antenna. This is a name brand Belkin and works just as good as the original. Actually, it appears to work better than my original micro antenna because my commute to and from work had a dead spot where the original antenna would not pick up the XM signal (even when it was new). Since I replaced the antenna with this Belkin micro antenna, no more dead spots. Great value too.

My husband can now move his xm radio from one work truck to another when there is going to be a lot of down time.
Exactly what I needed! februarie 5, 2010

This worked perfect. I have had my xm radio for about 3 years and all of a sudden it just stopped working. I would get a "No Signal" read on my radio. I would also only get a signal in one short area on my drive home. It was so frustrating. I kept calling and having my signal refreshed, until I bought this item and it worked perfectly. I get better reception now than when I first bought my xm radio!

This is an exact OEM replacement antenna for well under half, sometimes under a third of most replacement antennas. It has specifications identical to the original equipment and the lead wire will probably break - the weakest link- after a similar amount of use and/or careless handling. A situation I can live with.
great for sirius, too decembrie 11, 2009

The antenna finally died on my 5 year old Sirius radio ... replacement "sirius" antennas are more expensive than those for XM, especially this Belkin and, frankly, have they received poor reviews for durability.
I particularly like the right angle connector for the back of the radio, since I think my old antenna died from continued flexing of the cable at that point. The new cable is fairly flexible, but mine was hard to unravel without a tangle and seemed eager to develop kinks -- take your time and avoid sharp bends and kinks, they might reduce performance.
I think my old antenna gave me 3 bars (of 3) most of the time. With this antenna, I get a solid 3 bars with a clear sky, and fluctuation between 2 and 3 on tree lined residential streets. The signal only drops out with a long under pass. Performance, in other words, is quite adequate despite this antenna's tiny size.
I took a chance since it had worked with Sirius radios for other reviewers. But, it makes sense that the same antenna would work for both systems -- the frequencies are almost the same, at 2320-2332.5 Mhz for Sirius and 2332.5-2345 for XM. No surprise the manufacturers all use the same connectors, etc., etc., -- it's cheaper that way.
