For those of us that prefer listening to Satellite radio. I have one for my trailer, but every time we set up camp I have to reposition the antennae to get a good signal. Would prefer a permanent one on top of the trailer, similar to the TV antennae. I will have to look and see what I can install after market. Also it would be nice to have an easy AUX connection to the built in radio/sound system of the trailer.

Back when I had my old XM Roady 2 radio, I would set the fm receiver in our camper to the transmit frequency on the Roady and we could listen to satellite radio inside, which was really nice during baseball season. I still miss that old radio just for that one feature, but when you got into a metro area with a radio station on almost every frequency, it didn't work quite so well. Jay |

What about using an input on your TV and playing =that= through the stereo? I know you can buy RCA to 3.5mm adapters if you can find an AUX in. Later: I just checked, and KZ shows on the 2020 Archive that you =should= have Bluetooth on your stereo. Might need to update the sat receiver. Lyle |

I think I have the cheapest radio KZ could find AM/FM only no other frills and it has blue tooth I can stream Pandora through.

If you have a SiriusXM subscription just download the app to your smartphone and then stream via Bluetooth thru the stereo. No antenna needed! And if you have access to WiFi use that instead of your data!

My Satellite radio does not have the ability to connect via Bluetooth. Bluetooth works if I use my smartphone to stream the satellite signal via a data stream. That works where there is a cellular data signal, but if not, no satellite radio. I can connect my satellite radio to the trailer's radio via the Aux port, the challenge is where to put my Satellite Radio while able to connect via Aux cable and to position the satellite radio antennae to get a strong signal.
