Title: XM Satellite Radio
Post by: Vermillion on September 01, 2004, 07:40:32 AM: Ok guys, I'm thinking of buying a XM Satellite Radio for my new 2004 Envoy (wish it had come factory with that particular truck, but it had everything else I wanted and I got a great deal).

Anyone have experiences or opinons?

Any tips on particular models of receivers?

Thanks !

Only problem I have with it is driving through highway interchange/overpass the signal sometimes cuts for a second or two. I knew local radio pretty much blew but XM confirmed it. I havent listened over the "airwaves" since I got it.

You don't even realize how much you hate commercials till you have xm. regular radio needs to die.

XM has a cool section of music stations labeled 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's I found myself listening to a lot of 40's big band music though I actually bought XM so I could listen to Phil Hendrie at work....he's on 152 :)
