I recently purchased an Audiovox Onyx (not sure about the spelling.)  It has
a docking station with RCA and stereo mini jacks and an AC adapter.  The
antenna has a long cord so you can move it around the room for best results.
I don't know how critical the placement of the antenna is, but I bought my
radio from my radio store and the person I spoke with was very helpful and
they have a 45 day money back guarantee.  Hope this helps.

Hi everyone;
Just thought I might benefit from someone Else's experiences.  I'm 
looking for an xm or serious unit to connect to my sterio.  There are 
both analogue and digital inputs.  I'd rather not buy the full boom box 
just the receiver and a docking station.  My wife talked with our 
previously mentioned friends at radio shack and was more confused than 
when she started.  The other issue that came up is that this sterio is 
on the northern wall of our house.  Supposedly the unit needs to be in a 
southern window.  How critical will that be?  It won't be possible to 
have the unit in a southern window.
Any ideas appreciated.
