The antenna pick up seems to be pretty good - probably works 95% of the time - in other words, some days are totally fine, and others where teh reception cuts out once in a while - but then again that seems to be what you get with satellite service anyhow (at least its been my experience, even when wide open under the sun on a beach).

Just about the only thing I wish my Kenwood did a better job of was displaying song/artist and easy access to functionality that an actual Sirius radio display shows. Oh well, I can live with that.

Hope it helps.

we made it ourselves. We took the sub box plans off of the FAQ and just took the height off of it basically.
