Default XM Radio

Just wondering what stations anyone here listens to on xm. Personally I ussually flip between lucy and ethel (54 & 47) but I am starting to get sick of those two and am looking for a new station, only catch is that I listen to it at work half the time so it cannot to too crude.

I find all stations seem to repeat quite a bit. I signed up for the 3 free months, but doubt i will continue on.
I usually flip between 81 & 67.

202 is always my first choice. I will then flip randomly between 54, 48, 47, 44 and even into 65, 66, 67, 68 land.

If there is nothing at all on, I'll delve into 30, 26, 20, 9 and 8.

I love my new radio that tells me what is on the previous channel I was listening to.

NHL Home Ice, BBC World, All the rock channels, some jazz and XM chill is also good once in a while!

My wife and I wont be renewing our subscription due to the newer stations in Calgary filling our musical need. We both enjoy Fuel 90.3 enough to not spend more money on radio.

Plus, I've been finding that I'm plugging in my iPod more and more lately.

And don't be fooled like we were. One of the main reasons we got it was cause about twice a year we trek out to Kamloops, and we thought we'd have signal all the way on the highway. This is far from the case, and very disapointing.

I mainly listened to pop XM stations like 20 on 20 and Hitlist, the 90s on 9, and the NHL stations. Very rarely did we listen to anything else other than maybe Flight 26.

do you have your antenna setup properly? i have Sirius so maybe it's different, but i drive out to the Okanagan regularly (near the Vernon area) and the only time i ever lose signal on my radio is in the tunnels in the Roger's Pass. and my antenna isn't anywhere special, i just have it sitting on the front of my dash pointing up through the windshield
