I have been an XM Subscriber for over 10+ years and have had this particular Unit for 9 years (It's turned on, on average for 8 hours a day),and is transferred daily between my truck and used in the house in an XM Boom Box, and I think this is the best Unit they ever had for a few reasons. It has a 5 line display (the only one) and it's music title line will scroll, the 5th line (scrolls) you can put in the stock ticker name and keep track on how much your loosing, or sport teams and keep track of scores.. Direct channel input or turn the Dial..There is 75 commercial free Music channels,1 commercial WXIX Nashville,PBS,about 200+ sport channels, and channels in Spanish, french, Asian, Canadian, BBC, and another 300+ ONLINE Channels (Different Packages).. I Only have 1 Complaint about them, they have the Worst (in my opinion)Book keeping in the industry(since Sirius Took over), so when you sign up make sure everything is correct at that time, because getting it corrected later may take for ever.. BUT it's nice to hear the music I want without commercials.. Also Real time Traffic Channels in Major Cities, LA, Pitt, Miami, Seattle, ETC...Read full review
This is a high quality Receiver for the XM I have in my car. Sound and base is excellent. You have the choice to use the built-in antenna which cuts in and out if not in the right location like the window, etc. or you could use the remote one like the one that comes with the automobile. Although it takes 8 c size batteries, it's nice to know you can take it anywhere. There is an available transformer so you can save on batteries. Highly recommended.
it is overall good and is very easy to use and functions well, but the screen and inferface is kind of out-of-date. it is very plain. a color or more lively screen would have been nice, but overall the product does what is meant to do and works well.
Great XM reciever. I bought this one to replace the one in my truck which was over 5 years old. It survived 16 hour days of riding in a semi that long, so it must be tough. No fancy color screens or moving images to distract you. It's simple to install, simple to use. I had to pay a $15 charge to XM to change service from my old radio to this one, which I think is a rip off. You'd think they made enough off of the subscriptions. One call did it after I actually got to talk to a English speaking human!
I bought the xm radio receiver to replace one that had got hit by lighting. This is a great unit for the money. The old one was used in a machine shop for two years, nearly 24/7. When and if this one goes bad I'll buy another as soon as possible. There is no replacing satellite radio. Once you have it regular radio will drive you nuts.
