Good Radio Stations

I have never had too much trouble out of mine. The only time my satellite goes out is around Speers Ferry in Scott County or anytime I am right up on a high wall or large mountain.

You may be referring to the wireless FM modulator 89bluedevil. You do lose sound quality, but in this area it isn't that bad for being run over by other signals. When you go to Atlanta, or even PF/Knoxville you can get some interference. The best thing to do is get a hardwired FM modulator if you don't have an auxiliary input, or a direct connect tuner. You wont have the interference issues then.

As for the satellite signal, is very rare to lose it. I lose it for a second in Clinchport everyday due to the foliage overlapping the road, but only heavy foliage or driving up against a cliff or something tends to block the signal.

I don't have any problems with the built in FM transmiter on my XM. If you find that you don't like it or have a problem you can go to Adams Friendly Tires up in Wise and they can fix you up pretty cheap compared to most places.

Well, the newer units are worse than the old ones. The FCC made them tone down the strength of the transmitter.

My XM is built in my car, so i don't know anything about transmitters..

but I do hate the FCC and i'm glad that XM is not sanctioned by it.. Terrestrial radio just can't compete with Cds iPods and satillite radio.. its just fading into the darkness
