PICs and XM Radio (OT)
2003-02-26 by paulhaneberg <phaneber@one.net>
Thanks for the suggestions on the PICs. I installed an XM radio in my car a little over a week ago (a Delphi.) Although I haven't had too much time to scan the dial, there does seem to be a lot of good content. Last week I had to drive about 400 miles on business and the radio worked flawlessly. I did run across at least one station playing electronic music, as well as some good prog rock and a pretty good selection of other musical forms. I like the news as well and got a lot of laughs out of the comedy stations. Since I drive about 25K miles a year on business I'm very pleased to have it especially since every radio station in the country plays the same 20 songs. I have found that I can also plug my iPod into the FM modulator and play my Ipod through my car stereo as long as the XM is turned on. COOL!!!
