Can I use a Sirius radio car subscription with a stand-alone radio at my home? I got a free sirius radio subscription with the purchase of a new car.

How can I get sirius online radio to work? I have a mac and i've been using sirius radio online for maybe 2 months now and all of a sudden it doesnt work. I looked at the FAQ on the sirius website and i downloaded the latest version of flash & flip4mac. Why wont it work?
SIRIUS RADIO QUESTION: How exactly would I hear music from the receiver? I'm interested in buying a Sirius radio for home use only but don't know how it works. If I buy a Sportster for example, does the music come out of the receiver or do I have to connect it to another radio or speakers? Would it be essential to get a docking kit? Also, is it true I can set the Sirius receiver to play on a certain frequency, and then I can tune to that frequency in another room and listen from there? Thanks.
How can I Change my car radio frequency to play my Sirius? I have a 2004 Subaru Legacy. It doesn't seem to allow me to change the radio frequency to a "dead" location. Is there anyway to over ride it to that I can tune in a dead frequency to play my new sirius radio? I know there is a tuner. The problem is that it will only go to a station where there is a frequency.
What do I need to connect my Sirius radio to my Pioneer head unit? I have a Pioneer stereo that will operate my Sirius radio, I currently have the car kit and want to use the stereo to control the Sirius unit(It is a 'Satellite Ready' head unit.). I don't know if I need the Sirius SC-VDOC1 or the SiriusConnect CD-SB10. Sirius isn't the best at making sure you don't have redundant equipment, so I'm a little lost here. Thanks.
How do I turn my Sirius radio into an Audio In? I have a Sirius Satellite Radio hardwired into my car, the model is a Sportster 4. I took it to Circuit City and had them wire it into the car so it sounds better. I figured the base of the sirius player had to have an Audio In so I could hook my iPOD to it...But I don't see anywhere to do that. So, the ports on the Sirius player are "FM Out, Audio Out, ANT, and DCSU" 3 of them are have plugs in them (all leading into the dash of my car so I can't see where their going...) If anyone knows how I can plug my iPOD into this please respond. (I don't have a caset player so I can't use the caset method, and my radio head doesn't have an Audio IN on it...) Thanks!

What do I need to do to uninstall Sirius Radio and and install in other car??? I have a Sirius Radio system that I want to take out of my old car and put in my new one. I cannot take my car anywhere as it is unreliable and I don't want to run the risk of not being able to make it home. I have the system that mounts of my dashboard. Circuit City originally installed it and set it up. What is the easiest way to go about doing this? Any advice?

What is the best way to get Sirius Radio or XM to sound better? My Mustang GT came with Sirius and I have to laugh at the poor quality of the feed. FM radio sounds 100 times better then Sirius. Now you have a big dog to deal with. SLACKER You get 15 CD quality Radio Stations and 2 GB memory for 199.00 with no monthly fee. It loads itself off your wireless system. You can add your MP3 too. www.slacker.com
Sirius radio? I have it installed for about 2 months now, and I find it is very repetitive. I know there are over 100 channels, but I really only listen to about 5, because that is what I like. but on a recent road trip, it was like deja vu; I could predict what was playing next after the first 3 hours or so. Does anyone else think they need to update their playlists more frequently?
How do I eliminate static from my sirius radio? I have a Stratus Sv3 sirius radio in my truck. It works fine if I set in the car with the engine off. But as soon as I turn the engine on I get a lot of static in the background. Sometimes if I touch the radio the static is reduced somewhat. Any ideas? i'm not sure if the wiring has been changed or not. I bought the vehicle used. it does seem the static increases with rpm
Does Johnny Knoxville still have a sirius radio show? I recently found out that about a year ago Johnny Knoxville and Roger Allan Wade got their own show on sirius radio... Are they still doing that show and if so, is there somewhere online that I can listen to it?
How to install sirius radio in a car that is equipt for it?!?!? So i have a 2008 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Limited Edition Sedan and one of its many features is that it comes Satallite ready. The dealer made it seem like it was so simply and all I had to do was call Sirius and get a code or what not. I HAVE a sirius radio account and have one set up in my Pathfinder and had another one in an older surbaru that I had ((but no longer use cuz that car died lol)) so signing up is not the issue here. Once I got the new car car and was playing around with it and reading the options, it says i NEED some sort of reciever for the Sirius to work in the car so I call the dealer and they tell me its going to be 400 bucks to install and I thought that was absoutely CRAZY!!!! So basically what I'm asking is, IS there somewhere else I can take the car to get it hooked up for a better price; some where like Bestbuy or some where near where I live which is in Chicago, or is there a way to do it myself?!?! ~Jackie I KNOW how sirius WORK on my SUBARU RADIO dial whatever its called it say SAT so all i need is to connect some stuff BEHIND THE RADIO not on the windshield or NOTHING but the dealer WANTS to basically take all my money for it and its just stupid i need a RECIEVER and some on to connect it DIRECTLY to the radio cuz my CAR radio will control it but WHO will do it?
Can I change a XM radio car to a Sirius Radio car? I just bought a car that has XM in it but I am already subscribed to Sirius. I was wondering if there was a way that I could get the XM receiver in my car replaced with a Sirius one? If not I will just use the radio I bought for my old car and get it installed into my newer one.
How do I operate Sirius radio? I just bought a used dodge nitro and i stumbled on to the fact that it has sirius radio. I am assuming the other owner had a subscription but will it run out sometime soon? How do I find channels? Should I even bother because I am not willing to pay for a subscription? Any ideas?
anyone had trouble with SIRIUS RADIO and what did you do? lots of static, the regular FM (88.1) sometimes bleeds over the sirius radio (with sirius 'on') so I went back to the installer and got an FM converter/adapter, supposed to 'make level' the FM signal and allow sirius to overpower it. Didnt work. Installer says it's either a bad sirius radio, or my Honda Fit's FM signal is poor to begin with. Sirius of course says the radio is fine and I actually dont believe them anymore. Who's had trouble and what did you do? The installer now wants to use an auxiliary adapter, like you would for an Ipod, thinking that will completely over ride the FM signal problem. he seems nice, not in it for the $, hence I distrust Sirius because they hide behind 800 numbers. HELP!
Steering Wheel Controls Not Working With Sirius Radio? I just had Sirius radio installed into my satellite ready radio system in my 08 Toyota Camry Solara. Everything works great, but the steering wheel control which normally switches between my presets when I'm listening to regular FM stations only goes up or down the channel listing when I'm listening to Sirius. In other words, it goes from Sirius channel 1, 2, 3 4, and so on....NOT my presets. Is it normal to lose this function?
Will my radio work if I cancel Sirius radio? I bought a new Dodge that comes with a year of Sirius radio; I've never had satellite radio before. When that year is over, will the radio work with regular commercial stations?
How do I remove the armrest extension? And a Sirius radio question.? I just got a good deal on a WRX that has the armrest extension which unfortunately gets in the way of shifting. So my first question is, how do I remove this extension? And will I need another armrest cover? The cover on the extension has the slot in the middle, whereas in the car itself, the slot is on the left (drivers) side. Does someone know the part number of the lid if I need one? My other question is on the Sirius radio. I noticed that when I got the car, I can only access certain channels only. So, does that mean that you have access to certain stations only for free? I can't find anything on the car papers saying if I am subscribed to Sirius or not. And also my signal keeps going off and on intermittently, while the head unit reads 'acquiring signal', even on a clear blue sky without being in a tunnel. I heard that Sirius has never had clear reception like XM. Anyone else experiencing this? Let me know. And thanks again!
how to stop static on my sirius radio? I have my sirius radio hooked up directly to an aux port on my radio so it's not a frequency problem. this is what i did. i brought a portable car jump starter in the car and hooked the power to that using the cig lighter cord that came with the radio.the static is gone .my question is how do i reduce static coming from the power source in the car.
Aux input on Dodge Caravan 6 CD radio for Sirius connection? Is there an aux input (to directly connect an external Sirius radio) on the back of the factory radio in the 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan?

How much does Sirius radio cost? I have a couple questions about sirius radio regarding prices. how much is the radio itself? How much is it per month? how much is it for installation? Can you switch it to a different vehicle if you want? Thanks!!!
Does any one know how I can get Sirius radio in my 2008 Altima Coupe with Bose?Maximas have the option of both I happen to know that other Nissan vehicles carry Sirius and I do not see why I cannot use a tuner from one of those since there isn't a specific one for my car. The dealer and audio shops keep trying to tell me I need to get the external unit. I already have that, besides why put another antenna on my car when it has one built in. I want all the info through my factory radio too. There has to be a way to change the XM unit for a Sirius. I have the technology package. The only thing I want changed is XM to Sirius. Can I use a tuner from a Maxima or another Nissan vehicle , and use the factory Satallite radio antenna to convert over to Sirius.
How can I activate Sirius radio in my 08 Scion XD? My pioneer sound system (the one that came with the car) says "SAT RADIO READY'... does that mean I can I get Sirius without buying a radio? The Sirius website is asking for a ID/ESN to activate service. Help?
