Im going to be getting the same CRT-100 tuner set up for my deck as well, but I cant find cheap ones with an antenna. I dont know if you would know but does it matter the type of antenna, or does any "sirius" car antenna work? I am going to have to by its separately.

any sirius antenna will work. as long as it is single connector an XM antenna will work too. heh

perfect thank you

Well, the CRT-100 needs an antenna with a dual input, or an adapter that goes from two to one. The older antennas pick up terrestrial repeater signals on a different antenna inside the little antenna, and need another wire, the newer ones use only one wire. I think the 2-1 converter is like $20 from Crutchfield.

ummm.... do you have a link... cause I dont get it.

Newer antennas have one line. Old antennas have two, and the CRT-100 needs an antenna with two inputs. You'll need this adapter here if you can't find an older antenna. I'm actually looking at getting a new antenna cause the newer ones are so small. My current antenna is about 4"x3", and sits about 2" high. It's kind of an eyesore on a clean roof with no rails.

well I hav now lost 3 auctions for one.... this is the same thing basically isnt it?

No, it doesn't have the correct cable to play THROUGH the CD player. I actually have an extra unit here you can have, it just doesn't have that cable, and you can no longer buy it, so you have to buy a whole setup. That auction is for the unit with the little screen and controls that you attach somewhere in the cab.
