Ok, what about the cd skipping. Stopped at a light and riding. This unit is supposed to be for boats. I owned a boat. My Harley rides smoother. Should I buy the Kenwood unit for boats? I ride in areas where a cellphone signal is weak, so I prefer to have a cd.

I download music off Amazon prime to play offline on my phone. Cell signal is never an issue that way.

Not sure why you are having so many issues. You will be happy with the Kenwood. As far as weak signal. If you have music on your phone. Not streaming. Just play that. If you have no music, streaming and CD's are your best options. If you have time ripe the music to your phone or USB. Also keeps the disc's in better shape. JMO Ride safe
