 Should Be Taken Off The Market December 1, 2008
What a waste of money. To start, the batteries only last for 8 to 10 days if you use it more than a few times each day. Despite the claims for distance, I've found that I must be within 10 ft of the unit for the remote to work. If there is a wall between remote and the unit, figure on less than 10 ft.
Additionally, the signal drops constantly. I have it aimed perfectly and usually have the full amount of bars visible. But randomly each hour, the sound drops out and the signal is lost.
Also found out that Sirius will not send you any type of invoice or receipt each time they charge your credit card, unless you agree to subscribe for a year. Instead, they tell you to log in to their site and use the billing history button. The problem is that this page doesnt allow you to print an invoice. It simply shows a date and a charge. If you own a business and the Sirius charge is a business expense, you can easily see why this is such a problem. Those crazy accountants and bookkeepers have a tendency to want an invoice or receipt for any charges and expenses. Go figure.
This was a huge waste of money.

I purchased the SCH1W looking forward to hear commericial free broadcasting. I took it out the box and put the batteries int the remote.
There was a message to begin set up....push button on tuner. I could not find a button. I ended up taking the radio back and received a refund. I cannot review the quality of the radio, for me I found it confussing to set up..
 Great way to go... December 29, 2007

I bought this for my wife since she often wants to control the radio from anywhere in the house, and this works great for this since the radio remote is RF, not requiring line-of-sight as IR remotes do. What is also great is that the information about the station and song are on the LCD display of the remote. You can also program the remote to control the stereo that it is connected to via an IR output. Once you do so it will automatically turn it on as well as select the correct input whenever the Sirius radio comes on.
The reception with the supplied antenna was not that great for us, as the Sirius reception does not seem as good as our XM was, and it would very depending on the time of day. I solved this problem by purchasing the Sirius outdoor antenna and mounted it on the roof. Now the reception is great all the time. If you are going to get the outdoor antenna you better think about getting the antenna extension cable as well, as the cable that comes with the antenna is only 30 feet long, which wasn't enough for me.
Sirius Conducter Home Tuner by In Stock.-- Ships from and sold by Beach Audio June 21, 2007

I never got a chance to actually use the product. Beach Audio never shipped the Sirius Conductor Home Tuner on time. I purchased the item the Thursday before Fathers Day Weekend. I even paid extra to expedite my order. I wasn't expecting the item to arrive before Fathers Day or on Fathers Day. I didn't even mind if the item arrived the Monday after Fathers Day. I e-mailed Beach Audio to inquire the location of my package. I didn't get the response I was expecting. Instead I received this in a e-mail from Beach Audio; "We're waiting for an update from the warehouse". The item was never shipped. Keep in mind when you order something and pay extra to expedite your order you would expect a rapid turn around. I canceled the order since Beach Audio didn't know if the warehouse shipped my package or not. After I canceled the order I received this e-mail from Beach Audio; "We have received your cancellation request and have begun the cancellation procedure.
Please note - YOUR ORDER IS NOT YET CANCELLED. PLEASE DO NOT CONSIDER IT CANCELLED UNTIL YOU RECEIVE A FINAL CANCELLATION EMAIL. There is a small possibility that the we could have received more of the item you ordered in stock and already shipped this order. We need to verify with our warehouse that the item hasn't shipped. This process usually takes up to 24 hours. Once we have confirmation that it hasn't shipped, you will receive a final email from us confirming the cancellation. Please note that if the item has already shipped, you can still return it, but you will still be responsible for outgoing freight and subject to a restocking fee upon return". I personally will not buy another product from Beach Audio.
