Sirius Stiletto 100: My Sirius stiletto 100 won't play in my vehicle

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 09:47:22 -0700

I have a Sirius Stiletto 100 and so does my wife, Hers works at home and in her car. Mine works at home but not in my vehicle. Both radio receivers are activated. Mine shows "no antenna detected" message while connected with the vehicle antenna placed over the roof of my car. I have changed all of my radio receiver setting exactly as my wife's but no luck. My receiver works perfectly at home when I connect my Sirius satellite headphones it catches all active channels, (at home), just like my wife's. Mine not even recognizes my vehicle's FM radio signal. I connected my wife's radio receiver with her car dock and my car dock in my car and it works, catches my car's FM signal and we can hear all 184 activated satellite channels, connected my radio receiver with my car dock and with her car dock in her vehicle and same problem. "no antenna detected" message also appears, pressed The FM switch on hers and my dock into her car and both docks won't recognize the car's FM signal with my radio receiver. I'm writing here as the last resort hoping someone has experienced the same problem and perhaps know how to resolve this mystery. We have tried everything at our disposal.

Sony XDR-S50 DAB Radio: Sony XDR-S50 DAB Radio - No Ensemble

Sun, 24 May 2026 12:46:00 -0700

My Sony XDR-S50 DAB radio (which I’ve had since 2007) has suddenly started saying No Ensemble. If you remove the batteries for a minimum of several minutes and replace them, or press the reset button (hidden under the battery compartment door) then turn it on it rescans and finds all the stations, any of which will play. But if you switch it off and immediately back on again (without removing the batteries) it’s back to No Ensemble. I think it did this on one isolated occasion a year or more ago but had been fine since.

I guessed there might be a flash memory chip in there to holds the scan result, and that this might have failed, which seems to be confirmed by this post on this Polish forum (thanks, Google Translate!). (The DAB tuner module is marked Fontier Silicon so I simply Googled for Frontier Silicon DAB and found this post in the first page of results).

This implicates an 8 pin SOT serial EEPROM chip, so I’ve ordered a replacement.

I’m posting this to record the problem and hopefully the fix for the benefit of the community and I’ll report back. Meanwhile if anyone has experienced similar problems, please feel free to comment.

BOSE Wave Music System CD Player FM AM Radio AWRCC1: How do I dislodge a cd from the player?

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 19:54:33 -0700

I have a cd stuck in my Bose CD player. The eject button on the remote will not dislodge it. I'd read, on U-Tube no less, a few years ago that shaking the player would work Didn't and seemed a rough solution.

DAB Radio: Bush Radio powers on with new power supply but wont tune.

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 19:54:35 -0700

Bush radio original power supply is 5.9v the lead became dodgy so I bought a third party replacement, sold as suitable for the model of radio. Replacement power supply is 6v. The radio powers on and the clock and tuner displays on the colour screen on the radio work properly, but the radio says that every station is 'not available' . Swap back to the old power supply, which isn't suitable long term because of the dodgy lead, and the radio works perfectly. The only other difference is that the old power supply has a large interference surpressor on the cord which the new one doesn't have - or if it does have it - it is in a much smaller fitting nearer the output plug. What could be causing this behaviour Any solutions?

Bose Wave Radio AWR1-1W: Power cord chewed off by dog

Sun, 01 Feb 2026 11:36:49 -0700

My dog chewed the cord off of my Bose WaveRadio/CD Model AWRC-1P. It has a non-removable part that’s attached to the back of the radio that’s a part of the power cord. How can I replace the cord if it can’t be removed from its base? What are my options? Buy a whole new radio? I checked and it’s no longer under warranty.

CB Radio: President Grant AM SSB needs help.

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 00:24:28 -0700

I have a President Grant 40 channel. AM SSB. It appears to be recieving as it sounds like it when antenna is connected. It has a external VFO. Antenna is nice at 27mhz. Its new to me and I havent had the back of yet. Questions.

What exactly is my VFO for?

My signal strength needle does not seem to work,does not move much?

My select switch could be bad as I have LSB but it is dead quiet on AM and USB

The radio come with a small kenwood mic, which did not work, another new CB mike I had here seems to work. The light comes on when triggered. The VFO has an on off switch, do you think I will ever use it? When it triggers the signal meter shows a small movement.

The signal meter rises up with modulation when I key the mic and speak.
