Not true. You're allowed three transfers to new equipment which costs an additional $75 transfer fee and a $15 activation fee.

I'm still on my original Sirius Sportster (the one with the good FM transmitter). However, it's become kind of finicky... I have to move it around a bit sometimes to get a connection to the antenna. Still, five years with the original equipment isn't bad. Sounds like you haven't had as good luck with your equipment, though.

This just happened to my starmate 4 a few weeks before christmas. You get the same "Antenna not detected" thing on the display?
I bought a starmate 5 on boxing day, and cancelled my 4, but I took it apart and I think I've found the problem. Assuming yours isn't on the antenna itself, then open it up and take a look inside where it plugs in to the dock. Use a magnifying glass if you have to. On mine there is a little soldered joint that broke. I'm still trying to figure out how to solder somethnig that small, but I will come up with a solution soon, I hope.
I switch my radio between my car and work vehicles, and always take it off the dock when I'm working/leaving my car wherever. So I suspect that after a few years of that joint flexing, and moving it finally broke.

Also, as the iron shiek would probably say "gently caress THE ERIC THE MIDGET, HE IS A CHEAP JEW human being SON OF A BITCH, I WILL gently caress HIS rear end AND MAKE HIM HUMBLE"!!!

You might try solder paste. (Just don't confuse it with flux which is nowhere near the same thing).

What the poo poo is solder paste? Is it something that I can just dab on the joint with a pin, or toothpick?
Thanks.

On topic, I thought the Seth Rogen interview was good today. Finally a decent guest, that isn't George/ gilbert/ Mr.T.
Also, I didn't hear them busting Richard's balls today, but I have to agree that holy gently caress, sometimes they just go too far, and not by being mean or cruel but they just keep going and going. I got fuckin sick of Howard loving with gary for 2 hours a day when his book was coming out, and he was doing the book tour.

Seeing how ETM gets all pissed off about the rumours of his deaht, inspired me to write this email to Richard Christy today:

Hey man, love the show and all that. I don't know if its been done already, because I don't have the opportunity to listen from begining to end every day. But, I was thinknig a good prank for Eric th Midget would be to announce his death on the air. I've seen some of his youtube videos where he bitches about people spreading rumours about his death, they're great.
But to get real reactions from people, you might need to only have Howard in on it.
Something on the lines of, talk it over with Howard, and have him spring it on the show, Say for example Howard: "I just got a call from so and so saying that ETM died last night".

The rest of the staff, will of course react by being happy or sad, but I think it will make ETM go insane. Then Howard will talk about planning a small memorial service etc...

Its possible that you might need Steve Langford in on it though. Just to give it some "credibility".

My reasoning behind it was that he would go insane and call in to the show, prompting either "we told you you would call back" or "How do we know its really you, and not some recordings made a few weeks ago" hopefully culminating in something similar to when he threatened to break Fred's fingers.

Really? I find his poor racial caricature offensive and he goes on with it way too long. I actually turned over to another station when he went off today.

I guess my issue is blatant racism is funny because you can laugh at the person being racist and how dumb their impression is, but Howard's interpretation of how black people talk is more subtly (and in my mind truthfully) prejudiced and therefore offensive to me.

This reminded me of something from a few years ago. THey played a clip of Imus, who had some guy on his show call up, doing an "I is be black" routine, talking about how he banged Beth O, trashing her and so on. Howard and Beth were upset, rightfully so I guess. But Howard got SO pissed off "they were implying that she has sex with BLACK MEN" A WHITE WOMAN HAVING INTERRACIAL SEX WITH A BLACK MAN. Insert sal apology joke here. And then he has a porn star in the sutdio, "you ever do scenes with black guys?. Yes? Really"!!
THen a regular girl who happens to be a guest, "You've had sex with black guys? WOW, you're so wild"!!

Black men, people, BLACK MEN.

Also, I fuckin hate Grillo, Tracey Millman is right, he is a fuckin piece of poo poo douche. He keeps going on about looking for his big break in acting. He reminds me of that guy who's 40 year old, still lives in his mom's basement, in a band. "Yo man, next year my band is gonna hit it BIG, when we save up the 500 bucks to cut our album we're going to be HUGE"!!

So that explains why Lisa Lampanelli is the 2nd most frequent guest on the show next to Joan Rivers...

But speaking of frequent guests, and one that I actually enjoy on the show, it looks like Tracy Morgan was having some fun last night at the Knicks game (Howard was there, too):

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_162-20029869-10391698.html

The difference is I find Lisa hilarious. Plus, you know, I do find it interesting that she *claims* to love having interracial sex with BLACK MEN. Joan Rivers on the other hand, I don't find too interesting.
I'm not sure who I would rather gently caress though.

Indolent Bastard posted:

And don't forget that according to Howard, Fergie must be constantly getting hosed by the other members of the Blackeyed Peas, because BLACK MEN can't not gently caress a white girl if they are around them too much. Regardless of the fact that they are co-workers and professional performers, and that she is married.

I think Howard's racism is more insidious because it is derived from his inadequacy over his dick and therefore he fears hugely endowed BLACK MEN and their ability to steal white women because every girl just wants a massive dick up in them and would leave Howard the second they got a hard loving from a black dick.

gently caress, yeah I meant to include that in my previous post, but slipped my mind at the time.

Speaking of retards, I personally thought the Gary the Retard segment was pretty good today. Though I wish Richard had waited a little while longer before he came in to the studio. The idea was too fresh in Gary's head about shooting him, and if he had waited a few more minutes Howard could have been screaming for help and yelling at Gary to shoot him. Then Richard could have come in dressed as the retarded flu and Gary could have shot him again.
Just my opinion.

Remember Artie vs the College basketball girl? Artie was drunk, hadnt been to bed and only lost by a point or something.
Beer League is what it is, and I know they edited the hell out of it, but Artie actually looked natural hitting and fielding.

/Robin: I was just going to say that.
I remember listening to that and was going to bring that up. Yeah, Artie did pretty goddam good, I think he was in better shape in those days, like not 300 pounds and falling asleep in the studio. It was before the Sirius days. I think that people who are reasonably athletic never lose that as long as they stay in somewhat good shape. Sure reflexes get a bit slower and all that, but Artie *says* he was a good athlete back i the day, and if he really was drunk, and hadn't been to bed etc. then I'd have to say that he was pretty goddam good for losing by only 1 point to a college basketball player. Girl or not, I'd bet she was in great shape, and had way more competetive experience than him. That says something there about him. The problem is, most people only remember fat, heroin addicted, falling asleep Artie.

WARNING :siren: You are about to read a good story about sirius/customer service. Your results may vary, and probably have. :siren:

Up until a few months ago, I still was using the Starmate 4 that I bought in 2006.
It went through quite a bit of torture being moved between an assortment of work vehicles and my car that were all full of dirt and poo poo, being in my lunch bag when I was working etc.. getting all kinds of dirt, and dust and other crap all over it. It finally stopped working, well it still works technically I suppose. I took it apart and found that there is a small break in a piece of metal on the inside that I'm sure if I solder it, it will be fine (haven't gotten around to it yet).
I ended up getting a Starmate 5 on boxing day for 30 bucks.
I was a bit pissed that I couldn't transfer the balance of my 4 on to the account of my 5, but was refunded promptly for what I still had on the 4. And by promptly I mean within a week. I checked my credit card balance for any refunds the next time I was at the bank, which was a few days later.
Most recently, I called to get my account name and password for listening online and it was easy as all gently caress.
The people I dealt with even spoke fluent english.

Buying poo poo from the sirius store was easy too. Prompt shipping and all that.

I don't work for Sirius, these are just my experiences dealing with them. Obviously not everyone has had the same luck.
