The XM Audio Page is divided into three panes. The first pane
contains a list of XM Radio categories into which XM Radio
channels are grouped (Classical, Decades, Traffic, and so on). For
a complete list of available categories and channels, visit the XM
Radio Web site at www.xmradio.com. Select All Channels to view
a list of all channels in numerical order. You can also view a list of
your favorite channels.
The middle pane shows a list of channels in the selected category.
