More Sat. radio questions

first question, is the blitzsafe adapter better than the snhond3, quality wise, i ask this because i have been having some tech issues with the snhond3..

second, it seems as if the way my sat radio is now installed is that my snhond3 is connected to the FM modulator box, is there a way to eliminate the FM modulator box from the equation completely with a 2004 tsx?

Blitzsafe and SNHOND3 are basically the same thing. Are you sure the issues are with the SNHOND3 itself and not some other part of your wiring?
If you have an Ipod or portable CD player. Try hooking that directup up to the SNHOND3 and see if you have any issues with that.

Your SNHOND3 should not be hooked up to the FM modulator. When you listen to Sirius, do you have to press the AUX button on the factory HU?
Does it say "CD-C" on the radio when you listen to Sirius.

yes it does say CD-C when i listen to sirius, and after driving it for a couple days now i have not had tech. difficulties i was having previously with the SNHOND3, i know that they are basically the same thing, maybe my specific tsx just doesn't like the snhond3, i'm just glad i was able to find a solution, my reception is still spotty on a couple streets that i drive on with lots of trees but other than that i am very happy now.

right now i have RCAs running off the FM modulator and they go into the bliztsafe and then the blitzsafe is connected to the HU obviously. how could i bypass the FM modulator altogether?

i'm not sure what you're asking .. what do you mean by you have RCAs running off the FM modulator? an FM modulator either transmits audio wirelessly or through a passthrough antenna cable that you'd connect behind the radio.

What Sirius tuner are you using?
