Starmate 4 Plug-And-Play Satellite Radio

The Starmate 4's ultra compact design is specifically tailored to fit the interior of today's vehicles. This new design provides a large widescreen display for viewing longer artist names and song titles, and up to five lines of text. This plug-and-play receiver with universal docking capability stores the last 44 minutes of whatever you're listening to for replay later. Now you can hear that favorite song over and over, and you'll never miss another big sports play because you happened to be out of the car.

Everything You Need To Know

The SIRIUS Starmate 4 has a large, easy-to-read, five-line, backlit LCD screen where the artist and song title are displayed on separate lines. If you press the display button, the character size will increase to maximum, put artist and song title on the same line, and scroll them across the screen continuously. Channel name, number, category, preset band ID, and time of day are always displayed. And you can manually adjust the display's contrast and brightness controls for best viewing. You can preset the tuner to a total of 30 channels in three separate banks. Tune directly to a preset channel by selecting one of the preset bands and pressing the preset number on the keypad of the receiver or the remote. In preset mode, the rotary tuning knob on the receiver will also scroll through only the preset channels. You can program the Jump key to access a specfic channel, no matter which preset band is selected. With the category buttons on the receiver, you can cycle through Pop, Rock, Country, Hip-Hop, R&B/Urban, Dance/Electronic, Jazz/Standards, Classical, Latin/World, News, Sports, and Entertainment program genre channels. Use the rotary knob to select channels within a category. Using the keypad on the remote control, you can access any SIRIUS channel directly by entering the three-digit channel number. The Starmate 4 will capture and store up to 30 artist/song titles in memory and S-Seek will alert you anytime any of the stored songs are playing on any channel.

SIRIUS About Sports?

Satellite radio is more than the latest technology. It's an extraordinary new way to experience your favorite music, sports, news, talk, and comedy--and it goes anywhere you go. SIRIUS Radio gives you the freedom to hear what you want, when you want it. Your choices aren't limited by where you live or where you travel. Imagine over 130 choices with dozens and dozens of commercial-free digital-quality music channels playing the newest songs as well as old favorites, heart-stopping coverage of professional and college sports teams, national news broadcasters you trust, talk shows you rely on to inform and provoke, and even traffic and weather (selected major cities). You'll be able to hear every NFL game, all season long. To stay on top of the action, program Game Alert to let you know when your favorite team takes the field or scores while Game Zone lists your favorite teams' scores all on one screen. Listen to the home or away announcers, your choice. SIRIUS Satellite Radio service (not included) requires subscription and activation fees. Service is available in the 48 contiguous states. Service is not available in Hawaii or US Territories and Possesions; there is limited service in Alaska.

You'll Never Miss A Thing

As soon as you start listening, the SIRIUS Starmate 4 automatically starts storing the last 44 minutes of whatever it is you're listening to for playback later. Create your own instant replay of that thrilling touchdown just by pressing rewind. When the phone rings in the middle of a drive to score, you can pause the live action. You can also fast forward or rewind through the stored action or choose a particular artist or song title. The Starmate 4's memory is erased every time you change channels or turn the unit off.

Installation Is A Snap

The Starmate 4 comes with everything you need to install it in your vehicle: docking cradle, mounting bracket, cigarette lighter adapter DC power cord, roof-mount antenna, and mounting hardware. The receiver has a built-in FM transmitter with 100 frequency options so you can send your SIRIUS programming to your vehicle's FM radio without a wired connection. Simply set the Starmate's transmitter to an unused FM frequency in your area and tune your vehicle's radio to that frequency to enjoy all that SIRIUS has to offer. Slide the Starmate into the docking cradle and it locks in place. Connections for the SIRIUS receiving antenna, DC power, line output (minijack), and FM transmitter antenna are on the back of the cradle. Using the suction cup mounting base, the docking cradle can be fixed to any reasonably flat spot on the windshield, and there's two adjusting points on the base so you can position the receiver for the best view. Finally, locate the low-profile SIRIUS antenna (with powerful magnetic base) on the roof or trunk lid of your vehicle so that there are no mechanical or line-of-sight obstructions, connect the antenna cable (20.5' long) to the docking cradle, and installation is complete. No muss, no fuss, no bother.
