Move your music effortlessly between car, home, or office. | An easy-to-read, six-line, 2.7-inch multi-color display helps keep tabs on the channel name and number, category, artist name, song title, and time simultaneously. The receiver also lets you program up to 30 presets of your favorite streams, as well as search by stream, artist name, song title, or category. And with a quick press of the one-touch jump button, you can instantly switch between traffic and weather reports for your city and any of your preset music, news, or entertainment channels. Other programming details include an S-Seek function that stores your favorite artists and songs and alerts you when one is playing on any of the music channels, direct station tuning via the numeric buttons, and a channel lock option. Time functions include an onscreen clock, alarm, and sleep timer, as well as a program alert that allows the unit to switch to a preprogrammed stream at a selected time. The Sportster 5 really earns its stripes, however, with its variety of enhanced features designed specifically for sports lovers. The Game Alert feature prompts you when your favorite NFL or other sports teams are playing on Sirius. The Game Zone lists all of your favorite teams in one virtual category and lets you select a different team from each of the various sports leagues, including the NFL, NBA, NHL, and college sports. And what sports fan could do without the Sportster's instant replay function, which lets you pause, rewind, and replay 60 minutes of live radio? As soon as you tune to a channel, the receiver automatically begins storing the audio for later playback. The Sportster 5 also includes a built-in FM transmitter that sends Sirius radio programming to your vehicle's FM tuner, so you don't have to make a direct connection to enjoy the full array of channels. Simply set an empty FM frequency on your radio and tune the Sportster 5 to the same frequency. This function also works with other FM tuners, such as the one on your home stereo, but is easily paired with the car thanks to the bundled vehicle kit, which includes everything you need for listening to Sirius while driving. Parents also have control over channels and channel lockout. Measuring just 9.5 x 7.5 x 3 inches, the Sportster 5 weighs a mere 3.7 ounces. About Sirius

 great radio! October 15, 2008
my husband really likes this radio. the face is really neat with all the colors. he says it's a bit static-y at times but for the price of the radio, he says it's not worth complaining about. he loves the idea that he can rewind radio time so he doesnt miss anything.
Great radio with the right connection to your car October 15, 2008
I bought this for my wife's Civic when her favorite local station changed formats. Installation was easy using the enclosed Vehicle Kit, but the FM reception was lousy. There was no direct plug in option on our 2004 car. But, here is the secret. I bought an FM relay ($15), a little box that plugs directly in between the external antenna and the car radio and connects to the Sirius. That means that her radio now receives an FM modulation signal from the Sportster with absolutely no interference. Voila, great reception. Sirius, should simply provide this accessory at no charge, but it is cheap enough to buy and worth it.
 Super Radio! Great Reception October 11, 2008
I bought this radio for my husband for his birthday. It cost him $15 to have it installed and the reception is wonderful..He's happy, so I'm happy
Great Radio (you will need direct FM connect) October 3, 2008
My wife and I love this radio. We bought 2 back in August. I didn't buy the direct connect at first, but soon realized I had to change the car radio station every ten minutes or so on my way to work to try and find a clear signal. Definitely make sure you will have a direct connection to your car radio somehow, you will enjoy your new Sirius radio so much more. I would have given 5 stars if they would include the direct FM connect when you buy.
Works really well August 12, 2008
I didn't want to get another portable radio but my last sportster broke when I dropped it. This one works great and I am extemely happy with the addition of the auxilary plug and bypassing the fm transmitter. Now I never have static or have to worry about an open station. It doesn't have the travel capability of the Stiletto but I have an ipod and do not need that anyway. I think it is a great radio and worth the money. It was cheaper on Amazon then the Sirius website or any other place with the free shipping.
