Shakespeare SRA-50 SiriusXM antenna

Installed on the roof of an RV, works great. Only the curved part of the antenna was used without the base, creating a very small ledge on the fiberglass front cover. Mounting without screws only with self-leveling sealant. Just finished a 2000 mile ride with no leaks or problems.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Excellent reception - accessories and consumables

Mounted it on the roof of my Class C van and drilled a hole right through the roof to run this cable into the Ford cab and my new Kenwood radio with a Sirius/XM receiver. I used Dicor self-leveling sealant under the antenna and then over the mounting screws to seal this pup. No more passes on Radio Sirius, except flyovers

Pros
  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Major upgrade of the standard antenna

The sailboat had a standard antenna and was taped to the window. The contact signal disappears for several months before this change. Very easy to install, with multiple options depending on your needs and location. I went with a simple "puck only" setup on the bottom of the boat and it works great. Full bands on all channels. zero problems. I hope it stays that way. Definitely recommend.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Fits

Rubber seals are no good

I bought a Sirius antenna to mount on my boat's hard top. The neoprene rubber grommets for the mounting bolts proved useless. When tightening the screws, the rubber seals came out. I threw them in a keg and used clear silicone under and over the mounting screws to best keep the water out. Instead of rubber grommets, they should come with plastic caps to keep water out of the screw holes. The antenna works great!

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • boring packaging

This is a risky investment.

When the original antenna that came with the Sirius radio I bought for my remote controller over ten years ago failed, I bought this antenna in September. At first I was satisfied with the excellent performance. No more intermittent signal loss and accuracy seemed to improve. Til today. Everything was working fine yesterday, but this morning for no apparent reason I got a "NO ANTENNA" message when I turned on the radio. I love Revain's hassle-free returns. policy, but this morning I noticed…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Good antenna, but I got a defective one.

This is the second galaxy I own. The reception is superior to any other satellite radio I've tried. There are three mounting options: socket as shown, raised flush mount (using the top screw kit and mounting platform) or direct surface mount which is just an antenna head with a slotted screw. coming from below to fix it to the surface with a lock nut. I didn't give five stars just because the slotted bolt was deformed and wouldn't screw into the antenna head. This prompted me to change the…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Good product, terrible customer service

This antenna works perfectly. I installed it on my Nose Rider in front of the windshield with a low profile, no-pedestal mount and it worked right away. When I'm in bays with a lot of trees, the reception is sometimes interrupted. I have the same problem in my car so I suspect this is typical. Otherwise the reception is better than I expected. If you ever need service, good luck. With my first antenna, the cable from the swivel connector broke after a few months. Things like that happen. Since…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
