Sirius Radio

[Redcrown]

Just purchased a 07 Monoco Diplomat, has a sirius ready radio however no manual for it. Anyone know what brand name for this radio? Very common unit for Monoco products. No luck with Monoco yet!

Try searching on Google by providing as much detail info as you can. I would guess you can find the manual.

Could be a Magnadyne, as they do not put their name on the front of many models.

You are correct. I had the Magnadyne in my former '07 Monaco. Joe

Thanks for the info, have downloaded the manual. Tried to setup the Sirius radio however this unit will not bring up the Sirius mode. I reset to default and then got a one time Sirius screen but could not get the code!

I also have a Magnadyne that is Sirius ready. I bought a Sirius tuner and antenna from Best Buy, and it didn't work. They took it back without any questions and refunded my money. I contacted Sirius, and they said that the Magnadyne uses a their own decoding system, and you must have the Sirius module from Magnadyne - which was very expensive. Mine was over $200.00. Hope you can find one cheaper. You'll also need the serial number off the Sirius module when you contact Sirius to start your subscription. I mounted my antenna on the roof of the MH and ran the lead inside the separator between the split windshield and mounted the Sirius tuner under the dashboard. It simply plugged into the back of the radio. If you buy a used module, you might call Sirius first to see if there are any licensing issues.

Hope this helps.
