Delphi SA10085 Roady2 XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Built-in Wireless FM Modulator
Delphi’s compact SA10085 Roady2 XM satellite radio is, on average, four times smaller than competing plug-and-play models. While 30 percent thinner and 40 percent lighter than the original Roady, the Roady2 features the smallest satellite-radio antenna available, together with a built-in wireless FM transmitter for easy setup and reception in any vehicle. Just tune your car’s radio to any of the unit’s 12 FM frequencies and sit back to enjoy XM Radio’s 67 commercial-free music channels; 63 channels of sports, talk, comedy, children’s, and entertainment programming; and more than 21 channels of advanced traffic and weather information for major U.S. metropolitan areas. Roady2 offers a convenient scroll wheel, 30 channel presets, and 10 direct-entry buttons. The two-line display offers artist, track, and channel information, and it has seven selectable background colors to achieve the look that suits your style: red, night blue, green, pink, purple, sky blue, and orange. TuneSelect will alert you when a favorite song starts playing on another channel, and the unit’s versatile mounting options consist of a vent mount, swivel mount, or Velcro. Additionally, Roady2 is the first satellite-radio receiver capable of displaying up to 20 customized stock quotes while playing any of XM’s 150 digital radio channels. The influential PC Magazine gives the Roady2 five stars, calling it a “brilliant device” and naming it an Editor’s Choice. The magazine praises the Roady2 (more…)

Older is Better in this case
Had first gotten a brand new unit from XM Radio directly which had horrible reception. Then a friend that already owned this particular Roady2 model, which is a few years old, but…

outdated and overpriced
I love the Roady2, but cannot believe that Toyzz is charging $169.99 for this unit. It originally sold for only about $69.

Rugged
I bought this receiver about 4 1/2 years ago when I first got XM. It is a straight foreward little receiver.

BAD CONNECTIONS
I agree with the ‘positives’ of other reviewers – it is a nice product, when the connections are functioning.

Roady 2 – even given as a freebe they still aren’t worth the price
I got a Roady 2 about 2 years ago and it performed well enough that my son bought one and got one free which he gave to my son-in-law.
