i've very happy with my purchase now that its all up and running in rr like it should. MOST of the mainstream channels in the area carry the HD stream, but it appears most do not have subchannels. Honestly to me (for now at least) this hasnt been a really big deal. I'm having a weird interference issue now... for some reason i get better reception closer to my home if my back seat is down lol. I'm thinking a signal booster should help that though. My directed tuner is in the back on top of my computer and i'm using BOTH cables the directed unit comes with in order to have a cable long enough to reach my stock antenna plug. Most people will overcome this by placing the tuner up where the radio should be.. and that might be what i end up doing if i cant get my interference issues sorted. Overall though i'm very satisfied with the purchase.. but i was in it for a FM/AM replacement first and the HD thing is a bonus.

In terms of hooking it up to your car antenna the unit comes with everything you need to do that. The tuner has an antenna IN and antenna OUT ports.. so if you are using your stock radio you can run the antenna through both the stock radio and the tuner. Grab mitch's cable, grab one of the tuners and you have everything you need to get this hooked up and running.

Hey mitch, what are the chances.... or should i say how easy would it be to create a splitter that allows you to control the unit via RR AND display with the LCD included in the package? I'm thinkin i'd like to know whats available on the radio even when i'm not listening to it.
