Negative Positive
Title: Poor reception
Review: I purchased this receiver in anticipation of a trip along the Blue Ridge Parkway just last week. I knew it would be remote and was looking forward to music and radio (NPR) while riding. The setup with XM took some time. I didn't realize the unit had to be on and outside, not in my garage when the "activation signal" was sent from XM. Nonetheless, once set, the unit was easy to connect to my Garmin Zumo 550. Once on the road however the reception was poor. While riding along the Parkway, any trees would block the signal giving a patchy reception that was so aggravating I turned off the unit. This continued all the way from my home in Georgia, along the Parkway and Skyline Drive into Washington DC. I really can't recommend this unit due to it's poor signal. I tried contacting XM... Surprise, I found "customer no-service". Good luck if you choose to buy this.
