With all the experts now over at the DRC, we all have had interesting issues to solve with our Sat Radio's.
Post your problem and how you solved it here.
I'll start.
Problem:
What makes the Stiletto switch from the Internal Antenna to the External one?
I was trying to find a way to use a connector that I took off an XM radio, but when I connected the antenna to an external antenna, the Stiletto would not use it. The SMB connector was connected to the Tip and shield, but it would not switch.
To make it work, I found out that the radio needs a resister shorting between two pins on the connector to make this happen.
To figure this out, I took apart the headphone connector and mapped this out.
My XM2GO mod is probably one of the best radio's I have. It is small and compact and is great to use. The price was the best thing (Less than 20 bucks)
For those that did not see this project, here was the original post back on the SBS.
