LAUNCH OF THE SIRIUS AUTOMOTIVE ANTENNA

Easy to Install Roof-Mount Antenna

Commack, NY (April 23, 2002) - TERK Technologies, in support of Sirius Satellite Radio, the satellite radio broadcaster, introduces a roof-mounted automotive antenna system for the Sirius service. The Sirius-certified TRK-SR20S is designed to fit the progressive styling of today's vehicles, without sacrificing performance.

The TRK-SR20S features a low-profile design that attaches to the roof of most vehicles. About the size of a computer mouse, the antenna attaches easily to the roof of most vehicles via a special acrylic adhesive - no drilling required. .

The antenna connects to the satellite receiver using a unique wiring layout, which is wrapped around and tucked under the rubber molding of the rear window for an invisible wiring solution. The cable's pre-terminated color-coded connectors are then connected to the Sirius receiver. The TRK-SR20S is easily removable at the end of a lease period or when a car is sold. The low-profile design ensures that the antenna is car-wash safe.

The TRK-SR20S is packaged with all necessary mounting hardware, cables and connectors to ensure complete compatibility with many Sirius receivers. The antenna features dual-mode functionality, receiving simultaneous signals from satellites and terrestrial repeaters to ensure continuous reception of Sirius programming. Sirius began broadcasting its satellite radio service February 14 in Phoenix, Denver, Houston and Jackson, MS.
