I am going to install an xact xtr8 satellite radio on my H-D motorcycle. When I was going through the web site that I'm going to order from, I noticed some of the radios run on 5 volts and some on 12.
Since it's a motorcycle, I'm going to have to splice wires (12 volt). I don't have the luxury of plugging it in the cigarette lighter, and I don't want to blow it up if it runs on 5 volts.
Can you tell me if this works on 12v or 5v?
12 volt is standard the gps system might convert the 12 volts from the bike to 5 volts to run the gps system don't worry just hook it up there is no motorcycles or cars that run on 5 volts

Just the other day, my xact8 receiver was tuned in, nothing out of the ordinary. Then, it started to "download" channels. Although it went through, it only displayed channel 0 (the SID number) and channel 184 (weather/emergency). Since I have a lifetime subscription, this was not acceptable. I turned the unit off, waited a minute, and turned it back on. This time, however, it started to download again, but locked up on 0%. Receiver is about 2-1/2 years old and, until now, has never had a problem. I am almost guessing that the receiver fried (because my antenna is permanently displayed on my dash (with a wide windshield) and is not exposed to the outside elements, nor is it subject to potential vandalism.

I need the color code for a Kraco mdl KGE01G car radio. It has a 9 pin square outlet plug but the wires are exposed are all of a different color. An old radio but it should work. I can wire in behind the plug with power, ground, and speakers if I know the wire code. This way I won't have to tear into the radio and figure the code out myself. Thanks

When I switch on my unit I get a message saying updating channels followed by 100% complete. This is then followed by a message saying invalid channel. I then immediately get a message saying 0% complete. I have had this for two weeks. The Sirrius Support are less than useless. help!!!!
