I have had a hard time finding replacement power adapters for this radio as the plug keeps breaking over time. I thought this would be a great solution, but it ultimately let me down. I bought two so that I could move my radio between two vehicles more easily. The first issue I noticed is that I get a high pitched noise when the radio powers up. I am not sure where it is coming from. I could almost live with that, but the main issue is that my Starmate ST2 has terrible reception using this adapter. At first it was fine, but then over time it would cut out and I would lose the signal entirely. I tried it in both vehicles, and experienced the same issue. In testing, I immediately switched back to my old patched together adapter when I lost my signal, and reception was back to normal. I then switched back to the gomadic to verify that it was not a fluke and the problem resurfaced, so I immediately switched to the old adapter to fix the issue. I looked at the satellite reception signal, and the difference was full vs no signal.
