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.
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.
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).
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.
Easy set-up and works as expected, price reduced
Truly plug-and-play design that was quick and easy. I didn't have to look at a guide to set this up; it was perfectly obvious. Now I can locate my XM radio in my home office "cave" and locate the XM antenna where the sun shines and there is a path to the signal coverage. I'll take this with me into the work office someday to have the benefit of XM where I sit - - well away from windows and satellite signals. I knew for a long time that I wanted this function, but couldn't justify the price until it dropped by two-thirds.
