Yes, I have and Yes, I know but I got it from eBay so I can't exchange it. I don't know if it was made in China or not.

What you need is a Sirius fm direct adapter item #FMDA25 It will cost around $20.00. I had the same problem with my Sirius radio when I first got it. The fm transmitter was not powerful enough to disrupt the terrestrial radio station transmitters on the same frequency (or close to it). As far as plugging it in it is simple. Lay on the floor and reach up under the dash look (feel) for the antennae wire that fits into the back of the radio. Pull this out (it is just a pressure fit and will pop right out). Now plug in the sirius fm direct adapter into the same place you just pulled the truck antennae cable out of. Now plug the truck antennae into the back of the Fm direct adapter. After you have done this then run the other smaller wire to your sirius radio plugging it into the antennae port. This will give you crystal clear reception on whatever frequency you choose. You will also be able to use the truck am/fm radio as well simply by changing the tuner knob or turning off your sirius.
