Listening to Satellite Radio

To listen to Satellite Radio, you'll need to connect either
a SIRIUS or XM Satellite Radio tuner (sold separately) to
your satellite-ready receiver. Satellite Radio is available to
residents of the US (except Alaska and Hawaii) and
Canada.
Satellite Radio delivers a variety of commercial-free
music from categories ranging from Pop, Rock, Country,
R&B, Dance, Jazz, Classical and many more plus
coverage of all the top professional and college sports
including play by play games from select leagues and
teams. Additional programming includes expert sports
talk, uncensored entertainment, comedy, family
programming, local traffic and weather and news from
your most trusted sources.
Note
1 You can check the strength of reception in Using the XM Menu (page 54).
2 It's easiest if you have your TV switched on to take advantage of the GUI screens. You can, however, use just the front panel display to do
everything if you prefer.
Whether you purchase a SIRIUS or XM tuner, you'll need
to activate and subscribe to begin enjoying the service.
Easy to follow installation and setup instructions are
provided with the satellite tuners. Whichever service you
choose, there are a variety of programming packages
available, including the option of adding "The Best of
SIRIUS" programming to your XM tuner or "The Best of
XM" programming to your SIRIUS tuner, enabling you to
enjoy the most popular programming among both
services. The "Best of" packages are not available to
SIRIUS or XM Canada subscribers at this time.
Family friendly packages are also available to restrict
channels featuring content that may be inappropriate for
children.
