About as basic as it gets2008-10-22
This device works okay, but it definitely has major limitations. For example, you cannot set your favorite artist or song so that it will let you know when another station plays them. Even my 3-year-old Roady II did that. Yes, it sets 10 of your favorite stations, but you can't just go straight to one of them. You have to push the one button available (the middle one) and keep punching until you get there. Note that there are no 1-10 buttons on the device; again, even my old Roady II had this, which finally bit the dust and I had to switch. Looks like I'll have to switch again...this thing barely makes the grade. No wonder it's so cheap...as the saying goes, you get what you pay for...
A major dissapointment!2008-08-30
I've been a XM subscriber for several years now, and added this as a second unit. While I like the basic interface (keeping in mind that we SHOULD be keeing our eyes on the road!), I just about give up on the audio quality. Static is a major issue, and I am using the FM Sureconnect cable system.... and unlike my normal way of doing things - I actually read the manual (don't tell anyone!) to see if I did anything wrong and so on.

It seems as though I can't find a true dead spot on my Alpine HU to no avail. It works until I start moving, then static due to interference comes back - change dead channels... then down the road, static once again. Next step is a direct connect cable. Meanwhile, I am paying $7/mo for a gadget that is setting on the freezer in my garage.

If there was a remote control available, I'd swap it with the unit I have in the house. Overall I am very dissatisfied.
THE radio for no frills XM2008-07-14
If you're looking for XM radio at home or car, this will fit the bill. I use mine as a component to my home stereo, and I drag it out to the car for trips. It works well both places. It is important to note that XM service is equal no matter what receiver you use. Why anyone would buy anything but this model is a mystery to me. The unit has not broken on me, and it seems rather hardy provided you handle with care. One bad thing about this product is that it does not come with a wall adapter, which makes its home use prohibitive without purchasing one a la carte.
Great little XM receiver2008-05-20
I just bought 2 of these: One for home, one for office, both to be used with a docking station. I have no complaints at all, except for the fact that you cant manually enter in the station numbers, like I can do on my roady. Other than that, I really like this product.
Affordable xm unit that works well2008-05-02
I have wanted XM for a long time, and I found that this unit may be inexpensive, but gives me the access and features I need. It has 10 preset favorites, bright lcd screen that displays artist and song (or baseball scores), built in fm broadcast if I'm not able to directly connect it to the car I'm in by auxilary jack, and fm sureconnect kit for better non aux connection. This also uses many of the Xpress family accessories such as the boom boxes, bonus (Altec Lansing XM3120 Docking/Speaker System for Audiovox Express and Delphi Roady XT or Audiovox XMB-10 XM Boom Box for Xpress XM7 Satellite Radio Receiver)

There is some fuzz using the fm transmitter at times, but that is a hazzard of that feature if you are traveling. Utilizing the Sure connect feature virtually eliminates any crackle in the transmitter. In some cities the fm frequency are more clean than others, so that also effects performance also. Overall, the most bang for your buck if you just want access to enjoy XM.

Professional video camera
A Professional video camera (often called a Television camera even though the use has spread) is a high-end device for recording electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that records the images on film). Originally developed for use in television studios, they are now commonly used for corporate and educational videos, music videos, direct-to-video movies, etc. There are two types of professional video cameras: High end portable, recording cameras (essentially, high-end camcorders) used for ENG and EFP image acquisition, and studio cameras which lack the recording capability of a camcorder, and are often fixed on studio pedestals. Portable professional cameras are generally much larger than consumer cameras and are designed to be carried on the shoulder. Technology It is common for professional cameras to split the incoming light into the three primary colors that humans are able to see, feeding each color into a separate pickup tube (in older cameras) or charge ...
Audio & Video Connections Guide
" For a list of all the ways technology has failed to improve the quality of life, please press three." - Alice Kahn This quote is certainly applicable to consumer electronics. From the very first commercially produced radios to the latest in high-definition television technology, the manner in which the components used to deliver our news, music, movies and entertainment are interconnected seems to have escaped logic. For both the newcomer and the old hand alike, connecting equipment in the most efficient and effective manner can be a painful chore. It is hoped this article will improve your background knowledge concerning potential A/V system connection schemes and where each is most appropriate. The next time you find yourself in a "connectivity quandary" perhaps the ideas shared here will help you to quickly solve the riddle of which wire goes where and why!
