Xm Digital Audio Entertainment - Garmin G1000 Pilot's Manual

XM DIGITAL AUDIO ENTERTAINMENT

Digital audio entertainment is available through the
XM Satellite Radio Service using the GDL 69A. XM
Satellite Radio allows for a variety of radio programming
over long distances without having to constantly search
for new stations. Based on signals from satellites, coverage
far exceeds land-based transmissions.
