Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sirius S50

The Sirius S50® allows you to capture and store up to 50 hours of SIRIUS Satellite Radio content, or a mix of SIRIUS® programming and MP3/WMA files, for portable entertainment.

When attached to a home dock, vehicle dock, or executive docking station, the Sirius S50 provides easy access to live broadcasts and saved content, and captures and stores both scheduled and unscheduled SIRIUS programming. This feature allows you to listen to the unique programming provided by SIRIUS which you have saved, in locations where you would ordinarily be unable to receive adequate satellite reception.

When the Sirius S50 is docked and powered on, it gathers content in a variety of ways for listening on the go including My SIRIUS Channels, My Sirius Songs, scheduled recordings, and My Playlists.

The My Sirius Studio PC software which is included allows you to supplement the SIRIUS broadcast content with your own MP3/WMA library when attached to a PC through a USB connection. The PC application also allows for channel and image updates automatically when connected to the SIRIUS website.

The vehicle and home dock utilize a rotary Media Dial for quick and easy navigation. You can turn the Media Dial to find your favorite SIRIUS channel, tilt the Media Dial to pause, rewind, fast-forward, or save a favorite song or show.

Voice-assisted navigation informs you what channel you’ve selected, eliminating the need for you to take their eyes off the road while driving. The Sirius S50 also includes many other fea- tures, such as 30 channel presets; a jump button for one-touch tuning to traffic and weather reports or to a favorite SIRIUS channel; a sports ticker that flashes personalized sports scores; and a game alert feature which prompts you when your favorite NFL®, NHL®, NBA®, or other sports teams are playing on SIRIUS.

Sirius Satellite Radio S50 was a groundbreaking portable satellite radio receiver that revolutionized the way listeners could enjoy satellite radio on the go. Launched in the mid-2000s, the S50 was designed to provide a robust selection of music, news, sports, and entertainment programming, all with the convenience of portability.

One of the standout features of the S50 was its ability to store and playback content. With a built-in memory capable of holding up to 50 hours of recorded material, users could easily pause, rewind, and replay their favorite shows, ensuring that they never missed a moment of their desired programming. The S50 employed an innovative flash memory technology that not only improved the efficiency of playback but also provided quick access to stored content.

The S50 also boasted a high-resolution color display that made navigation easy and visually appealing. The large screen allowed users to view channel information, artist details, and song titles at a glance, enhancing the overall listening experience. Coupled with a user-friendly interface, this feature made it easy for both tech-savvy individuals and casual listeners to operate the device effortlessly.

Another significant aspect of the S50 was its dual functionality. It was equipped with both satellite and terrestrial antennas, allowing users to receive signals in just about any environment. This hybrid technology ensured that even in areas with limited satellite reception, users could continue enjoying their favorite programming through terrestrial broadcast signals.

The compact and sleek design of the S50 made it portable and easy to carry. Weighing in at just a few ounces, it easily fit into pockets or bags, making it ideal for both commuters and outdoor enthusiasts. Additionally, the device came with a variety of mounting options for vehicles, further enhancing its versatility.

Battery life was another key feature of the S50. With the ability to operate for several hours on a single charge, users could listen to their favorite shows without worrying about running out of power during long trips or extended listening sessions.

In conclusion, the Sirius Satellite Radio S50 was a pioneering device that combined portability, functionality, and a rich array of features. Its ability to store and replay content, vibrant display, robust reception technology, and compact design positioned it as a favorite among satellite radio enthusiasts.
