Sirius SP-H2 Sportster Satellite Radio Home Docking Kit

Good product. sounds good provided you have a window in recommended direction for your area of country and not too many obstructions to sky-under eaves,higher houses etc. If this is a problem I bought a 50' additional cable which is 18 gauge a bit thicker and probably better than origanl 20 foot thin antennae so I could run to a window where it plays well at.

Last year I purchased the Sirius Sportster Replay, Model Number SP-TK2, for my husband for Christmas. It came with the car kit. We were both quite disappointed when shortly after the holidays, we tried to purchase the home docking kit for that radio and had absolutely no luck finding one anywhere! We even called Sirius and were told they were out of stock and we were out of luck!I was so thrilled to see this Sirius SIR-STRH1 Streamer home docking kit at Amazon, and ordered it for my husband for Christmas this year. We hooked it up and it works wonderfully! We live in Southern California in a top-floor apartment. We put the antenna on top of a bookcase in the middle of the apartment, it's not even near a window. We aimed it up through the ceiling towards the northeast and it's picking up a strong signal, and our Sirius radio is working beautifully in our home now. We're very happy with this product.So if you have an older model of the Sirius Sportster that fits into the SP-C2 docking station, then it fits perfectly into this home docking kit.

I was upset that Sirius changed the connectors on the newer units that forced those of us who bought the "older" style to have to upgrade. My Sirius radio (bought in DECEMBER 06, was shortly after discontinued and the new home docking kits for newer units would not work. (I didn't open and use it until JUNE of 07).This item came BRAND new, fully sealed with all parts, including one that should have been included with my radio...an antenna for the FM modulator.It works beautifully and now I can bring my Sirius sportster inside, and still listen to Satellite radio on my Home Theatre setup.Thank you Amazon and thank the seller who had this at a reasonable price.

I was unable to get a consistent, satisfactory signal with this unit because of the antenna; the rest of the unit worked fine.I found that unless you had perfect exposure to the satellite that this antenna did not receive the signal very well. Also, the least movement of the connecting cord or if someone moved a blind/curtain, this would disturb the exact positioning required to make this antenna function properly.In the end I returned this unit and got an extra car antenna (the one with the strong magnet); this allowed me to put an extension cord under the window sill to the outside. From here, I was able to easily find a site for the magnetic antenna that resulted in excellent satellite reception (exact positioning is not nearly as important for the magnet antenna). Since then my home unit has worked perfectly.So...0 Stars for the headache in finding a secure, undisturbed spot for this unit. Makes you wonder if anyone at the company ever tried this unit before it went to market.Ray Nicholson

Sportster home home docking is a good repair or replacement for your Sportster travel unit to bring in your home sits on the counter . I bought it for the car but ended using it it my home more for some reason the antenna piece broke off so this was a easy way to fix the problem buy the base unit and works very well.

Cradle is exactly the same as the car kit, so setup was very easy. The antenna will take some time to find the correct placement, but the signal will work great once that spot is found. The only complaint I have is that the length of antenna cable could have been a little longer.

I chose Crutchfield because they were the only company showing that they still had this product. Well, not only was it backordered and not arrive for its intended gift date, it also wasn't the product listed. So now I have a credit to Crutchfield, not to Amazon, and have no desire to give the company my business.

Perfect for the original Sirius Radio!
