Have had XM for several years. I like XM cafe 45, 40, 50, 6, a couple of the jazz channels, ocassional comedy, classical choices are good and a few others. I have one unit but it goes in the car and workshop. Never had a problem with service.

Who is this Fred anyway?

Never listened to Seirus, don't like Howierd and glad he went there.

I followed Howard to Sirius, and he led me to Bubba and Raw Dog. I heard a rumor that the two may merge within the next 18 mos...could be b.s. too.

Channel 44. Used to have DJs. Marc Paretaeu was one and did the comedy channel to, until he invited 15 year old boys to his apartment. Kinda disappeared after that.

You have an obstruction, I had the same problem, I would loose lock every day from 11-1. It turned out my antenna was too low and the roof line was in the way of the Sattellite.

Try raising your antenna higher. On my Posche I have it in front of the windshield and I loose lock there as well.

Regarding Fred: I do like the names of the XM radio stations. And I like the tribute to "I Love Lucy:"

Ch 44 - Fred - Classic Alternative
Ch 47 - Ethel - New Alternative
Ch 54 - Lucy - 90's Alternative

All they need is a Latino Alternative rock station, and name it Ricky!

Military interferance. There's a couple of spot in Woodbridge where it drops the signal for me. On 3 different radios.
