I just received a Sirius Starmate setup for Xmas. Yes, I asked for it to listen to Howard! Please don't hold that it against me.

I plan on installing it using a Ram Mount or on an RCU shelf. My question is has anyone tested the strength of the FM transmitter (XM Users included). Before I switched the Denison setup, I had the Griffin I trip that was next to useless. On Long Island, we get FM feeds from NYC and Conneticut. I never had any luck with getting a signal. It would constantly drift. I haven't tested it yet on the bike but I was wondering if any of you had tried it.

In my truck, I have it set up with a cassette hook up. Since my 02 has a CD player in the oddiments box, that won't work for me.

Are you using the Dension ice>Link Plus? If so, they make a Source Selector (http://www.dension.com/icelink_source_selector.htm) accessory that allows you to add three additional auxiliary inputs. This may be what you need. No idea on price, though.

I just emailed them. As soon as I get a price, I'll post it here.

I also googled it but only came up with some german website. The pics looks intriguing.

I found it at this website for just $59 euros. That's only $69. Not bad!

This is Denmark no?

Did you see the link (http://www.dension.com/icelink_source_selector.htm) in my previous post? there is some info on the Dension website at:

Also, I think .de is Germany (Deutschland).

I tried the Denison link but no prices are listed. When you go to their vendor area, the unit is not even listed.

Ah, OK. I'd say just give Dension a call then.

I got this response today:

Our Aux 3 will not be available for probably another month and a half. If you'd like me to put you on our waiting list, please send me your contact information and I will let you know as soon as it's available. Thanks so much for the great recommendations as well.

Best Regards
