Help !

Does anybody know where I can get a new "old" sirius receiver ? I have the original sportster and recently bought a sportster 5, but the reception was too crappy. I transfer my radio daily from personal to work vehicle, so a FM antenna extender wont work (especially in my work truck) What are the models that have the strong FM transmitters ? I mainly listen to Howard Stern, Coffee house and the Rock channels. I am seriously considering canceling my subscription if I cant get a new radio, especially with this new royality fee. It's too bad they dont give credits like Directv does for long time subscribers. My original Sportster works, but the display is shot - I cant read it.:confused:

I had the same problem when I went to a Stilletto 2 in my truck. I ended up buying and installing a "FM Direct Adapter" (Model#: FMDA25) and it solved the problem. I no longer get static or drop outs.

Here is a link: FM Direct Adapter (Wired Relay) (http://www.tss-radio.com/direct-adapter-wired-relay-p-4082.html)
