Does anyone know where a replacement satellite antenna can be found that will work with the BRP NTouch XM receiver? I damaged the one that came with the kit and I am looking for either the OEM antenna or another variety that will work and has the same female connection to the XM receiver.

I don't have my XM yet, it's being installed this week, but I have had problems previously ordering proprietary satellite receivers and getting shorted the antenna or just not coming with one. Not wanting to wait forever to order the factory antenna, I checked my stereo guy and found that they all use the same antenna. So, I would suggest going to a local stereo shop with the BRP antenna and check to see if they have one that will fit. I'd bet they do.

Will do. I thought the various antennae might be the same in function, but wasn't sure. The NTouch receiver uses a SMA connector while most of the antenna today seem to use the SMB connector. I was hunting on the web for an adaptor, but I think your idea makes more sense. Thanks.
