Anyone know where I can find a portable xm radio that doesn't need to be hooked up to something for a signal?


My dad wants one to listen to while he rides his motorcycle. I've seen lots of different ones but they all seem to need to be hooked up to another stereo to work. Are there any that are completely portable??

Sirius and XM both offer several receivers that don't require the additional antenna or power adapters, which act as a stand alone unit. Sirius has a cool one called the Stilleto, however, XM also has one called the Inno.

XM's Inno can work either through your dad's stereo on his motorcycle (fm modulation: it can relay the satellite radio feed through a random radio station of his choice, such as 89.1, without any cables or anything) or he can use the earbuds to listen to it.

Below is the link to it if you wanna check it out...

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

I love my INNO. It's completely portable, but to get best reception when riding you'd need to hook it to an antenna. But that's in a car. It may do better on a motorcycle because of a lack of things to block it (like the roof of the car). I do have trouble with reception in the mountains and if I'm on a densly tree lined road.
