Steve Sommers is on channel 173 at midnight weekdays, separate from channel 171. However Bubba Bo is no longer with him on weekends due to cutbacks with Clearchannel or whoever the hell owns the station.

Between His show and OandA that's 10 hours of interesting news and radio, really makes those miles fly by. I have caught that serrius trucking show on the am a few times before they went satellite and really liked it, but don't know how good it is on the sirrius.

I think the time slot is 1-3 cst on the Road Dog channel... it's all music geared towards trucking... generally heavy on country and "trucker songs", but it has some variety. The Road Hammers generally play on there at that time. I think the segment is called "Hammer Down Radio" and it's a request show.

XM's is great but I can't stand Bill mack. Bozo is really good but often gets off trucking topics and I listen to Opie and Anthony and Ron and Fez during Nemo's show. Landline now I would never miss... 4pm rolls around everyday I listen. Good info.

Thanks for the assist.

xm and siruis both have websites where you can download and print their channel guides, then you can decide who has the best programming for your tastes

I try to listen to the trucker shows but they have all those callers call in and talk about NOTHING (and their cruises)!!!!

Sometimes they do have a good show about certain driver issues but it's not too often. The weather/traffic updates some in handy. But my xm's allways tuned to 202 from about 6am-3am or catching the replays if i'm driving at night.

I used to have XM and Sirius both. I got so tired of all the bull shit DJ chatter on the Sirius music channels that I finally gave up and cancelled Sirius.

Kept XM though

[ben45750]

Might not to have both XM and Sirius subs any more........ At the CES this week ole' Mel is really talking like something might happen.

I hope they dont merge......
