Starmate Replay to Ship
August 9, 2006
As we reported earlier today, some Sirius radios are getting ready to ship. The Starmate Replay has received grant of autority to remain effective:
10Q Excerpt:
"The FCC is continuing its review of our products as well as products of other companies containing FM transmitters. The FCC’s laboratory has tested a number of our products and found them to be compliant with the FCC’s rules. Based upon this testing, the FCC has permitted a grant of authority for the Starmate Replay to remain effective, and we expect the FCC to permit new equipment authorizations for other products shortly, including the Sportster Replay, Sirius One and U.S. Electronic’s Visor. We believe our radios that are currently in production comply with applicable FCC rules. SIRIUS radios that include compliant FM transmitters may be subject to some transmission noise, which may result in us encouraging professional installation in some cases. We continue to study methods to improve the customer experience for our subscribers using SIRIUS radios that rely on FM transmissions.
We continue to cooperate with the FCC’s on-going inquiry. As part of this cooperation, we are discussing with the FCC the proper testing methodology for SIRIUS radios that include FM transmitters and methods to bring devices in retail inventory or in consumers’ hands into compliance with the FCC’s rules.
No health or safety issues are involved with these SIRIUS radios and radios which are factory-installed in new vehicles are not affected."
