User questions & answers

Question:	Can it be powered by a cigarette lighter cord
Answer:	Yes, it is 12 volts just needs the mobile cord from serius or radio shack
Question:	I have a SIRIUSXMplus in my car which I like. I want to be able to bring it into my home. Does this unit require an antennae for home use
Answer:	Unit includes an antenna. You have to remember that this uses satellites for reception. Usually a southern exposed window will work for reception. Sometimes it will work inside house just by moving antenna. A great sounding speaker system.
Question:	Are this dock and the little radio itself the only things needed to use this as an outside radio at a construction site
Answer:	If the SiriusXM receiver is on the list of compatible receivers, then you will only need the receiver and this speaker dock. You can use the supplied antenna and wall plug or batteries(not included) to run the speaker dock.
Question:	Does this dock come with the ac wall outlet
Answer:	Your house comes with ac wall outlets. The pertinent question is does this docking station come with an ac/dc transformer so that you don't have to use umpteen batteries?

User questions & answers

Question:	how do i go about purchasing a charger
Answer:	Doesn't work in Alaska and Hawaii
Question:	I've had my Stiletto 2 for several years but I still have a problem with it self-erasing my library. Was there ever an update that fixed this problem
Answer:	Any building can create dead spots where you will loose reception. You need a clear sight to the south where the satellite is. If you don't you have constant trouble finding the signal.
Question:	I want to use this for exercizing outside. Is the reception the same as in the car? I get sick of my MP3 player
Answer:	It should come with a charging base. Put the radio in the base and it charges. I usually let the battery drain fairly low before I recharge it.
Question:	Does it have bluetooth
Answer:	What is the question? I have had good results with battery life. Let it fully discharge before you recharge it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this radio have a builtin speaker, or are is the use of head phones thy only option
Answer:	Hello Shirley - if you have an XM Premier subscription, channel 90 is a NASCAR 24-hour talk channel, and there are channels from 225-239 which will include live broadcasts of NASCAR races. XM Premier costs more than the standard XM.
Question:	Can I listen to live satellite radio without any additional equipment
Answer:	The airware will play live satellite radio - for best results you will need the docking device, with power supply, and an antenna, and connection to speakers (or headphones). You can also (using the battery) carry it portably with headphones, but maintaining satellite reception is difficult to do. That's where the previously recorded feature comes in handy. But you'll need the docking device and power supply to recharge the battery. I have docking devices for my home, office, and in my car, and use the Airware all three places - I think it's great.
Question:	Is this compatible with Bluetooth ear phones
Answer:	The XM2GO I purchased several years ago came with an antenna and desk station for connecting to 120v outlet which served as a charger and also a line-out for home speakers. It also came with car antenna and dashboard cradle connector for line-out connection for car speakers and 12v power cord. This was in addition to the built-in FM broadcast connection where you could select a frequency to tune in to hear selected channel. Very versatile, and I still use it almost daily after several years. Replaced batter once, they're still out there.
Question:	will i be able to listen nfl games if i subscribe to the sirus/xm package with those games offered ? while outside & without earbuds or must have
Answer:	You need a headset or portable speaker
