Cassette Adapter for SIRIUS SPORSTER

[merlinmer]

Anybody have any experience with a cassette adapter for the Sportster? The FM Frequency modulation isn't working well due to a lot of interference with other stations. I tried using a cassette adapter from an old CD player I had, but the output was minimal and I still ended up with a lot of interference. Any suggestions on which adapter to get.

thanks

When you say the output was minimal do you mean it was really low? I had this problem with my XM radio and the tap adapter and I was able to resolve it by by having the tape player switch sides of the tape. Once I did that it came in perfectly.

I hear if you call Sirius Customer Care they will send you a FM out booster for the Sportster. Reports from Siriusbackstage.com are very positive about this free option from Sirius.

Do they make one for the JVC?

I have noticed that the FM modulation makes it seem quiet compared to normal radio and CDs at the same volume setting.

Had pretty good luck and SQ with the generic Cassette adapter I used in my 99 F150...

Neutron,

I just called customer care about getting a FM out booster for my g/f's sportster. They told me they are out of stock at the moment but would mail one out as soon as its back in. I am going to give it a try with my JVC PnP and see if it works. I'm sure I will have to go to Radio Shack and get some sort of adapter to make it work in the JVC. You should give them a call and have'em send an FM out booster to you. If it doesn't work, oh well, cause its free.

Cheers
