Does the tuner hook up to the existing car antenna or is that another purchase that needs to be made similar to sat radio? If there's a link with more info i'd sure love to see it.

Really. I've been trying to find more info as to how it's setup with little luck. Right now, I use an aftermarket stereo for sound thru an aux input w/ my carPC in the trunk. If the HD radio uses an aux input, that's not ideal as I'd prefer not to have to run sound thru the carPC then to the stereo.

The Silabs is working, but nowhere near where I want radio functionality to be. I'm hoping that HD radio is the solution, but definitely need more info as to how to set it up.
