When I run my XM Radio I have to adjust the squelch. It seems to change the receiving of signal for my cb. Any ideas |

Seems like people have problems with XM and their CB's. I guess I made the right decision when I got my Sirius subscription.

I have XM and no problems what so ever. Try grounding your radio well. |

I have a Skyfi 2 and I use the antenna that came with it. It is a small magnet mount that I put outside the window on top of the door mirror (Kenworth ) |

I have XM @ Sirius and have never had any problems. My XM is a Pioneer XM Tuner wired direct to a Pioneer head unit, with one the older shark fin looking Antennas. It is not even mounted outside. I have it sitting on the top shelf back in the sleeper. My Sirius is a Starmate Replay and i have the magnetic Antenna that came with it stuck to the Mirror over the passenger side door like you are talking about.(Kenworth Also) . But i am only running a single CB Antenna on the driver side, So it is far away from any of the SAT Radio Antennas. So if you are still running the dual antennas that came with the Truck i would try moving the XM Antenna as far away from them as you could and see if that helps. |

Y'all pay for radio? Wow! I'd listen to paint dry before I'd pay to listen to radio. I still watch over the air TV because I'm too cheap to pay for cable or satellite programming. I suppose if I had more time for radio or TV it's possible that I might feel differently, but I doubt it. |

Yeah one of the most annoying things as a driver is finding a good radio station only to lose it a few miles down the road. XM is great cause no matter where you go you can still listen to your favorite station not too mention the unedited comedy....lol |
