I am using the Delphi XM Sky-Fi, which works the same way. The sound
is definitely Superior to that of FM in my car. Your alternative,
other than replacing your radio, is to buy a wireless FM modulator,
which is available from CCrane.


There _IS_ another alternative, the "XM Commander", which has the modulator
built-in. See the www.xmradio.com site. It's somewhat like the old Pioneer
XM unit, but brought up to date.

One __warning__ about using a modulator. Unlike FM stations, XM doesn't
heavily process their audio. You have to run the modulator audio at a
considerably lower modulation level than you hear on over-the-air stations.
Otherwise you will overdeviate / overmodulate on peaks.
