Terk SR1 Glass-mount XM Satellite Radio Antenna Review

DO NOT buy one of these.I won't go so far as to specifically blame the seller from whom I bought mine, but it's hard for me to believe he wasn't aware of the problems associated with this antenna.First of all, Terk is no longer an independent company, but rather a division of Audiovox, who doesn't seem to be particularly concerned about providing any support for the Terk brand.Second, the SR1 is now considered an "out-of-date" product, and is afforded only the "Sorry, there's nothing more I can do for you," response when you call Audiovox customer service.

While the "through-the-glass" technology seems like a wonderful idea, Terk's version of it is anything but.I can only ask that you believe me when I tell you that I am absolutely ANAL/OBSESSIVE/COMPULSIVE about things such as installation of an antenna like this.The glass, both inside and out, was as clean and contaminant -free as any piece of glass has ever been.The temperature was right, and the actual application was performed exactly as directed.

The interior half of the unit fell off 3 days after installation, and the exterior part only stayed in place for 4 days more.And when each part fell off, guess what broke in both of them -- the absolutely critical induction coils!

NO WARRANTY.NO RETURN.NO REPLACEMENT.NO SUPPORT.NO GOOD!

Product Description:
TERK introduces a glassmounted automotive antenna for XM satellite radio. The XM-approved TRK-SR1X features TERK's exclusive ThruGlass technology, which passes DC power, along with the RF signals, through the glass surface. The interior coupler is then hard-wired to the receiver using 16 feet of XMapproved low loss micro coaxial cable, which is pre-terminated with color coded, FAKRA type SMB connectors. The antenna is installed with a special adhesive that is extremely durable yet removable. The TRK-SR1X does not use any permanent mounting techniques, nor does it require any drilling. It also features a fully adjustable hinged mast that can be easily set to the optimum recommended angle for any window, or simply folded down to avoid damage at a car wash or other low-clearance situations.The TRK-SR1X is easy to install on most vehicles. TERK's glass mount satellite radio antenna features dual-mode functionality, receiving simultaneous signals from satellites and terrestrial repeaters to ensure continuous reception. The result is an antenna that offers all the benefits of satellite radio and complements any vehicle.
