Default Truckers Radio Stations

Howdy.... I am new as you can probably tell... and am interested in am/fm and satelite radio stations geared towards our industry. Can you give some suggestions... I am already listening to midnight trucker and find it informative when they are not running "the best of" series, which seems to be quite frequent.
Thanks for the assist.

XM has the Open Road channel, which is all about trucking.

If I'm not mistaken, Sirius has an equivelant channel.

Yeah Sirius has "Road Dog Trucking" channel 147 if i remember correctly. Its good for news/traffic/weather updates. I've listened to it a couple of times and didn't hear alot of music tho they do play music on the channel inbetween news/etc reports.

On a small side note (and forgive me if this hijacks I'm not intending to) but does anyone with XM hear a band called "The Road Hammers" on the radio? I've been listening to the Sirius in my mentors truck and can't seem to find anyone that plays them. I'm tryin to browse around to decide which one I want to get when I get my own truck in a couple weeks.

I had both xm and sirius and by far XM's trucker channel is far superior. They dont bump sporting events onto thier channel. Ya xm on dave nemos show plays the road hammers. I did origionally buy sirius for the Nascar but thier service isnt worth it just for the Nascar

I would have to say XM Open road channel, it is all geared towards trucking. Also I love the Opie and Anthony show on the virus channel. Between the 2 they keep me going all day. lol

does MTRN podcast? I like to listen, but I normally only catch the first hour or so before I go to bed. It seems it would make sense for them to do so.

Yeah O and A, I like them alot better than Howard Stearn. Ron and Fez are cool to. Yeah for Open road I like Bozo the best, and at night you have Dave Ramsey. Listening to him actually helped me manage my money better. :lol: . But it is all in preference I guess I love XM, I wish NFL was on it but o well. I have been with XM for a little over a year and would never go without.
