Features Overview: The SIRIUS SC-H1 satellite radio tuner allows you to receive, control, and play SIRIUS satellite programming for your SIRIUS-ready or SAT Radio-ready home receiver. It is not for stand-alone use; it has no controls or display. SIRIUS Satellite Radio: SIRIUS Satellite Radio has over 120 channels of entertainment and music. In addition to the more than 65 original channels of commercial-free, SIRIUS offers more than 55 channels of sports, news, and entertainment. SIRIUS 1st Traffic and Weather also provides continuous local weather and traffic reports for 20 major U.S. cities. A subscription is required to enjoy SIRIUS Satellite Radio programming. Compatibility: The SIRIUS SC-H1 SiriusConnect tuner is compatible with select SIRIUS-ready and SAT Radio-ready home AV receivers. SIRIUS-ready receivers must have the SiriusConnect 8-pin DIN connection to be compatible. Audio and Power Connections: The SC-H1 can be powered in one of two ways. In some cases, the SIRIUS-ready or SAT Radio-ready home receiver provides power to the tuner through the supplied 8-pin DIN cable. If the receiver does not provide power via the DIN cable, the supplied AC adapter can be used to power the tuner. Likewise, if the receiver does not support the audio input via the DIN cable connection, the audio output may be connected to the sound system via an RCA patch cord (not supplied) or optical digital cable (not supplied). The antenna input is a male SMB Jack, compatible with the included antenna, or a dedicated outdoor antenna installation kit having a female SMB Plug on the antenna cable. Indicator Light: The SC-H1 has an indicator light on one end to provide basic status information about the tuner: Steady Red: initial power-on indication Flashing Red: indicates that the antenna is not connected to the tuner Steady Amber: indicates that the antenna is connected to the tuner, but no signal is being received Steady Green: indicates that the tuner is functioning properly and receiving a good signal Wall Mounting: The tuner can be mounted on a wall, or on a vertical panel of an equipment cabinet, using two #10 screws. Two slots, spaced 1-1/4" apart on the bottom of the tuner, will accommodate the screws. Product Reviews Review this product Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences about this product.

Written By Mike H., Ocean County, NJ on Saturday, December 03, 2011 Have it paired with an DTR-8 and utilize the optical digital audio input. Sound is exceptional. Like the small size. The unit does not last very long. I am on my 3RD one within five years. Added the extended 3-yr warranty for an additional 10 bucks on the last one ordered. Wish they would just sell the replacement unit. Paying for the power source, cables and antenna is ridiculous. It's used almost 24-7, still no reason for such a short life. Pros: Small size, optical digital audio output. Cons: Does not last long. Includes unnecessary components. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I bought it for my Integra preamp and it works flawlessly. The install took a whole 5 minutes and I was up and running. I highly recommend getting an outdoor antenna as I did just so you don't have a little box sitting on your window. Other than that, you'll love this little tuner. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Works, but short lived Written By Lisa, Little Elm on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 This is my 3rd SIRIUS SC-H1 unit in 2 years. The 1st one had a short in it and was replaced right away. The 2nd one worked for nearly 2 years and then stopped working. I'm on my 3rd one and bought the extended warranty with it because it is such a poor quality product and the warranty is cheaper than the expected replacement. I still love my Sirius radio and a have a lifetime subscription so it is a necessary evil. Just wish Sirius put out quality electronics. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I am sure glad I did. My only hang up and it is probably related to my location, but I had a bit of trouble trying to get a good signal. I would guess most won't but because of the trees in my area, and lack of open sky, I struggled. Well worth it though once I found a place.

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Sirius SC-H1 Written By Paul, San Diego, CA on Tuesday, February 03, 2009 Great product. Suggest connecting it to an outdoor antenna for maximum reception using the outdoor antenna offered on the Sirius website. I used the Cable TV/Satellite radio antenna using coaxial cable. Connected it to my Sony AV Receiver and it worked perfectly. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Sirius Listening Written By Lee, Las Vegas, NV on Sunday, January 25, 2009 I suggest if you get this tuner you also get a stereo that has a direct hook-up using the din cable. This way you have a display and control through your stereo tuner. I'm not sure how it would work using a RCA cable. The antenna works great. I have it on a table in my bedroom next to a wall with no window nearby. No problem with the reception. The first SC-H1 tuner I got died within an hour. I called Crutchfield and they had a new one mailed immediately. They gave me a return lable via e-mail. I recieved the new tuner in two days. I'm very happy with the tuner and with Crutchfield. 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
