Does all of the Stratus Radios starting with 4,5,6,and 7 have the same connections ??? understand what i need to know let me know thanks

I can't answer 4 or 6. I do know for a fact that the Stratus 5 and Stratus 7's are compatible with the vehicle docks and boombox.

There are two different models of the home kit. It will say in the description which radios it works with.

Hi...., I think I know what you are asking, so I'll try to answer as best I can. Simplest answer is yes, the 22 channels are the same across the board. So if you bought a unit in California, it would still be able to communicate with the same channel in Connecticut for example (where I am). Not to say that they get that range of course...lol, we wish yea? So, Channel 1 is 462.5625 (FRS).....Channel 15 is 462.5500 (GMRS) no matter where you be. The fix to this for users who are close to each other, and have ANY radio that transmits these freqs, are the security codes that you see/read about in the discription. There are many, hundreds to choose from, depending on the maker of radio...etc. So....a unit on channel 15 set with the security code of say 22. (15/22) would be able to chat with any other unit set to same...The rub is this, and I think the solution to your quandary, is that the radio set to 15/22 can NOT, chat with a user close by that has their radio set to 15/41. How did I do...?

Yes, six can be connected on the same channel. Indeed, there is no limit to the number of people sharing a given radio channel. These radios have a group feature that facilitates well small groups, such that you are describing.

Most likley No. They are different brands. Probably different frequencies as well.

The answer is a little complicated. In short they will communicate with radios on the same freq as they are, but, finding another set of radios with the same freq may be difficult. We had several other radios when we purchased these 4 and none of our older radios would communicate with the new Rino's but, they were older and on different frequencies. We have had these now for a couple of years and have only had what I would call sucessful pairing of radios with Rino's of the same brand. None of the "other" radios communicated with the Rino without some level of static or choppyness. I hope this helps. The answer is a little complicated.

No, you only connect as many antennas as you have. It doesn't matter which you use. The antennas are all exactly alike.

Thx for responding. I have seen the same one I purchased for the Stratus 7 for home. But I have seen a different one for a vehicle. I cannot say with 100% certainty. Peace

Yes. I tested it by running three stations manually at the same time and they all worked. YOu need to start each individually, but three will run concurrently. Of course it begs the questions as to why you'd want to do that, but that is your business.

Yes. The radio channels are a standard. Some of the "sub" channels may be unique, but there will be a way to find a common channel with other 42 or 22 channel radios.

I have 4 speakers in my car and they all work with this thing -- exactly like the radio. BTW right after I posted my review, the "connecting pack" I've been using for 6 years bit the dust. I had a backup, though. Good luck.

Yes it does work with the Stratus 7! I just bought this remote and it works just great!

This unit if complete comes with five different receiver plates. If your stratus is an XM or Serius transmitter most definitely yes!

I don't know. The one I bought did not work for my radio (stratus) so I had to return. I had to speak with a tech with TSS to get the one that worked.

Ok, I mean, the signal is from XM sattelites. You have the same channels but from different sattelites. Personally I dont recomend this radio.

Yes you can go up in steps of 5 with this radio. Go in the menu and change it to increments of 5 if it isn't already set that way from the factory. Nice Radio !

Yes, the Strato receivers work with the Strato II transmitter. I actually haven't tried the Strato transmitter with the Strato II receivers and hadn't really thought to before because of the little differences of the systems. The Strato II allows you to set not only channels (like the Strato), but groups as well. I assume since the Stato receivers can't be set on particular groups, they'd default to the very first group. So if using a Strato II transmitter, you can set Strato II receivers to a different group and turn those off if necessary and still have the Stato receivers firing. You wouldn't be able to do the same if using the Stato transmitter.
