N'at Man Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Satellite radio is getting a lot of publicity, mostly due to Howard Stern going to Sirius. Nothing against Sirius but I wanted to see who out there subscribes to XM (I know at least some of you who do). I never figured I'd pay for radio until I had a chance to listen to XM. No commercial music and the ability to drive all over the country without trying to find stations on the radio is great. I was never much of a CD jockey in my car so to be able to drive out to a rural park like Knoebels and get any kind of music channel I want without commercials is great. The talk shows do have commercials but it is nice to know I can tune into ESPN to get some scores anytime, anywhere. I have a Delphi SkyFi2 that I use in my car and at home. Here are my preset stations: 1 - Boneyard 2 - Squizz 3 - Lucy 4 - Ethel 5 - Mix 6 - KISS 7 - Top Tracks 8 - The 80's 9 - The 90's 0 - Pittsburgh Traffic & Weather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillMontu Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I've got a Roady2 hooked up to my home stereo system. Currently, I'm enjoying the 80's station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I run the terk adapter set with my Alpine head unit and I LOVE XM. I can't stop praising it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenDen Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 XM is free on AOL and DirecTV, so I listen to it a lot. (It's the only reason I keep AOL these days, making mp3's from XM streams.) But I'm getting a sirius player soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.R. Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Even though I was threatened with expulsion from Coaster Team, I am the proud new owner of a Sirius satellite radio. Borg gave it to me for Christmas and I finally hooked it up for home and car and activated it on Sunday, just in time for Howard's debut. I haven't set presets yet (I have 20) but I am loving the wide variety of programming. My drive to work is short but it will be great for road trips and I like that I can use it in the car and at home. I hated commercial radio.

XanderLee Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I have both, and yeah...I really like XM a ton better. Much less talk between songs, plus all around better stations and playlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzCatter Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 XM, Roady 2, presets: 1. Fungus 2. High Voltage(Q&A are so much better than Howard the Duck) 3. Ethel 4. Lucy 5. Cinemagic 6. XM Music Lab 7. The 80's Had it since October, and love it. Almost got Sirius, but I dont like Stern, and the only reason I'd have it was for Radio Margaritaville, which is online also.
