XM Satellite Radio With Many Advanced Features
By Nikos L Maxwell
XM Satellite radio is an innovative way to find new
music - commercial and static free, with stations that
know no state boundaries. Catch the Oprah Winfrey show,
Alan Colmes, an NFL football game, Carlos Mencia’s comedy,
Snoop Dogg’s radio show or Casey Casem’s Top 40.
In addition to subscribing to XM Radio for $13/month,
you’ll also need to review your options and purchase
an XM radio of your choice. These radio receivers can
be used just for home use or just in the car, but most
units are built like iPods, so you can plug and play
music anywhere you please!
Bright Four Line Display
For your car, the Commander MT XM satellite radio gives
you a bright four-line display, a stocks / sports ticker,
the "Tune Select" function which finds your
favorite artists or songs, 30 channel presets and installs
right into your vehicle for $179 (plus installation).
Other similar options include: the Sportscaster (for
the ultimate sports fans) or the Audiovox XpressEZ (for
just $70)! The Audiovox XpressEZ is perfect for the
first-time XM satellite radio buyer, offering just the
basic necessities - room to program in 10 of your favorite
channels, a bright three-line display of artist, track
and station, a car cradle, cigarette power adapter,
vent clip and antenna.
XM Radio Home Kit
There are many optional accessories available to make
this a multi-functional unit that can be removed and
used with the XM Radio Home Kit or Boombox audio system
as well.
Rated by Consumer’s Digest as a "Best Buy,"
the $200 Delphi XM SKYFi2 can be purchased with a satellite
radio receiver, home and car kits included. This XM
satellite radio has pause and replay functions, sports/stock
tickers, an FM wireless modulator, 30 minute replay
and will save your favorite tracks.
The Little Pioneer Inno
As far as portable satellite radios go, the Pioneer
Inno is one of the neatest gadgets out now! Choose between
pink or silver and get the most out of your subscription.
Whether you’re going to the gym, on a bus or heading
into the office, this little radio can go with!
You can store over 50 hours of MP3s and also hear the
newest songs on XM channels, while keeping the pause,
play and rewind functionality on the table. The optional
noise-canceling earbuds are a great accessory to this
little gadget!
Classy Designs And Versatility
For home use, try the $250 Polk XRt12 XM Reference
Tuner, which allows 20 presets, channel display on your
television screen and audio hook up through your pre-existing
surround sound stereo system.
XM satellite radio gives you classy designs, versatility
and allows you to select your mood from over 130 channels.
The selection of radio receivers is much larger than
that of its competitor, Sirius radio.
While the two companies are startlingly similar the
antsy consumer will be happy to know there are many
sales going on right now through the manufacturer’s
websites in an effort to generate bigger sales.

Howard Stern has done it and so has Jay-Z. What did
they do? They switched to satellite radio as the only
way to listen to what they want, when they want. You
can switch too.
Do not be stuck in the same old station rut. Satellite
radios offer you the ability to listen to hundreds of
stations. If you feel like listening to the weather,
it is there for you.
