I purchased this receiver just after Christmas and I couldn't be happier. Extremely user friendly once installed(which is good because the manual is somewhat confusing). I especially like the scrolling knob and simple remote that makes things easy. I installed the antenna right on my dashboard up near the front of the windshield and I have perfect reception (I'm in the St. Louis metro area). I recommend purchasing the home kit as well. I did and I have it using the FM modulator to use around my home and I'm able to receive a strong signal throughout most of my home. Beware, however, that this is a discontinued product so the accessories are limited...and once they're gone, that's it. I'm also very happy with the Sirius programming. Great music selection as well as talk,news and entertainment. I believe satelite is still in its infancy and will continue to get bigger and better. Good luck and hope this helps.

We love this receiver. It was a snap to set up both in the car and with the boombox. SOOOOOOO happy with this purchase.

This is one of the worst electronic buys I have ever made. The product never worked right from the beginning. I had to jump through hoop after hoop to get it repaired. On top of that, the people at Audiovox have the worst customer service. Everyone was rude and did not seem even the least interested in helping me. They have no desire to serve the customer.

If you don't own a Sirius radio yet may I suggest you log on to your favorite electronic store site now and buy one. I got my PNP3 today, hooked it up in my Eclipse in about 15 mins, ran the antenna wire in less than that, logged onto the Sirius site to activate and have been listening to pretty much anything I want ever since.
(For those with an Eclipse here is a tip for install, I had a tough time finding a location for the radio and finally realized I could drill two small mounting holes right into the ashtray and bolted it right to the lid of the tray. Once it was bolted on and the angle was adjusted, I placed the ashtray back into the holder and voila! a nice mounting location and no damage to any expensive parts so when I sell the car all I have to do is replace the cheap ashtray.
Wiring the antenna was a sinch-rear roof mounted it, ran the wire into the car through the hatchback and then easily tucked it into the headliner and ran it along the rubber molding, inside the fuse box to get it under the dash and then ran it along the underside of the existing dash wiring and into the center console. )
Anyhow, the sound is superior to the regular FM radio even when using the modulator. This little unit really sounds great. Not the Audiovox of my younger years by any means. This is a very good quality product. Channel choices are nice and the display options are great-you can view channel choices by channel name or you can view the artist and/or song that is playing on each channel so you can decide what you want to listen to at that moment.
The unit has very user-friendly and logical functions. It's compact size forces some buttons to be a bit small, but not to the point of being unusable by any means.
I took a drive tonight to test it out and the stations were rock solid-I live in a rural area. Reception around my town and in the country didn't fade once. I can't wait to hear Howard on Sirius along with the many other talk shows, comedy shows, special news shows and, of course, music. This is amazing technology at an amazingly low price. GET ONE NOW!!!!

Nice display and controls, but two beefs:
I purchased this unit primarily because of the advertised size which I thought would help save space when placed in my car's glove box located between the two front seats. What they don't tell you is that part of the vehicle kit (purchased separately) is a separate "docking" contraption needed to give the unit power and an antennae connection. Well the docking unit increases the size to an average sized portable receiver (one with power & antennae ports built in).
The FM broadcast frequencies are limited to half the spectrum, not good when in any large city with a crowded spectrum.
