OK. Here is the deal. I need a Panasonic CR-SRT100 tuner for my head unit. Not in production anymore.

So, I do what everyone else would, poke around on Ebay. Low and behold I find some. $75+.

Hmm, also there is something call a CR-SRF100 setup, which is a "satellite radio in a bag". A setup that a truck driver would transfer from rig to rig. It is a tuner which look identical to the CR-SRT100, plus an antenna, fm modulator cables, and a controller/display. Well, these whole kits can be had for $40 on Ebay.

QUESTION IS, is the the tuner the same????? IF so, I am in high cotton because the antenna come with the kit and with a CR-SRT100 it is another $40 extra.

Any ideas???

Yeah, already did a Google search and looked at some of that. No help. I was hoping to get a reply from an installer that has had their hands on these units before.
