What XM Station do you listen to most?

[joyride]

i just subscribed today.Just want to know because there are so many stations,where do you go to most often?

[bamafan2102]

High Voltage 202- Opie and Anthony. The first half is pretty tame as it is broadcast to regular radio but the second half is anything goes.

Highway 16- Country. Basic country station.

Presets 1-4 are country. They carry Nashville's biggest country station as well. I believe it's WSM.

Preset 5 is 90's on 9
6- Eighties on 8
7. ESPN Radio
8. Fox Sports Radio
9. Nascar- going away in 07.
10. Opie and Anthony

There are so many channels with so many different things. I haven't listened to half of them. You ccan go to XM411.com and find out a lot about each station.

great info.thanks

[lsutigerfan]

I just upgraded from my old Sony PNP unit to a Pioneer Airware ($130 off of Amazon), which brings me from 5 presets per section to 10. It took me some time to pick my 10 presets.....

1. 09 - 90's on 9
2. 21 - Kiss XM (Kiss made to cut over Hitlist because of the better music variety and the better sound quality of the channel)
3. 26 - Flight 26
4. 47 - Ethel
5. 48 - Squizz
6. 54 - Lucy
7. 68 - The Heat
8. 81 - BPM
9. 143 - XM Sports Nation
0. 202 - High Votage (O&A)

I listen to Ethel, BPM, and High Voltage the most, but all other stations I listen too occasionally.

[Hook]

I have XM through DirecTV and the channel I sometimes listen to is Flight 26.

[S4C]

Highway 16 by far...

On AOL music, I listen to only two the most because I'm old school, man. I grew up listening to Urban and Dance club music over 80% of time.

Now I really wanna buy the entire package so that I can listen at work and anywhere I else I go. But I don't wanna abandon my lovely Ipod!

[Acid Eyes]

I get XM on my TV (it replaced Music Choice which comes with our Direct TV package).

1. 20 on 20
2. Hit List
3. The Heat
4. Flight 26

New presets for my new Inno

1) Highway 16
2) Nashville!
3) Flight 26
4) The Blend
5) America Right
6) WSIX
7) Music City Holiday

Im surprised at the turn-around Nashville! has made, to playing alot of new stuff. I forgot the name before the channel # changes (whatever that was about), but they used to play REALLY obscure songs that not even the biggest country fan could remember :\

[derek]

Anyone know how you preset stations on an XM car tuner? The way I'm changing stations now is dangerous...009.....020.....021....etc

This is what I punch through now:

90's on 9
20 on 20
KISS (not so much recently)
Heart :'( (not so much either)
25 (The Blend, is it?)
Flight 26
U-Pop
The Hit-List
Ethel (when I'm in the mood)
The Heat
BPM
Radio Disney (RARELY now...)

I'm discovering good new stations every now and then, which is good. :)

Mine works by just pressing the preset button and holding, just like the AM and FM presets.

[billyshaniatobyfan]

Highway 16. Just got Direct TV love the satellite tv and adore Highway 16 at least I get to hear the new singles. It's better than the local country stations who only play there choice of new singles.

[derek]

Also U-Pop is good...i don't like when they go off the air for months at a time to bring us more Christmas programming and 30 Days of Coldplay BLEGH!

[Slinky]

Yeah... U-Pop is my usual 2nd preset... I replaced it with Kiss until 30 Days of Coldplay are over. I haven't actually checked to see if it's back on yet.
