I have XM and I really like it. I have two recievers and have never had a problem with either one. I mostly got XM because they have MLB and 700WLW. WLW allows me to stay in touch with news at home no matter I am. When I first got XM they had Nascar also, but I'm not a big enough Nascar fan to switch to Sirius. I have heard from folks that have both that Sirius has better music channels, but I don't know that to be the case for certain. I listen to more talk than anything myself. Which system is better will always be a matter of individual preference.
I think Coast to Coast is on 165 from 1 AM to 5 AM, but I'm not sure. I think Rollye James is on before CTC now, of course, she's about just as bad, IMO. I know she comes on at 10 PM after Mike McConnell and occasionally I'll switch over to 165 to see if they've changed overnight programming, but I find CTC and move on.
Bubba was on WEBN here in Cincy back in the 90's for a short stint before he was fired. I think satellite radio was made for people like he and Stern. Personally, I don't have much use for either one of them, but to each their own.
XM also has Kevin Rutherford on for an hour each weeknight and four hours each on Saturday & Sunday. I really like listening to him and am surprised that more people obviously don't agree with his thinking. If most O/O's out here would listen to him and practice what he preaches, they could pay for a 5 year XM subscription in about a week.

I have had XM since it came out. Bubba used to be on XM and i enjoyed his show. I do prefer Ron and Fez(noon to three).

Im just the opposite. I just want to hear the music. If I wanted DJ's I would stick to FM radio....

You sound like a wo,an with my kind of taste in music. Mine usually goes back and forth between 15,19,20,and23, with 23 getting the most airtime. (But I'm an old 80's Hair Band leftover :lol: )

I've had XM for a while now and wouldn't change, even though I would really like to have the NFL channel. O & A are hilarious, Ron and Fez are better. I like the dave ramsey show, the trucking business show, can listen to espn all day. I don't listen to lots of music on it but they have pretty much anything you can imagine.
I think O & A and Ron and Fez are worth the money alone.

My channels (in order that I listen to em) on XM: 202, 171, 150 and when I just don't care, I flip between different types of music, but mainly it stays on 202.

If you haven't been yet, try out Kevins website and forum. I listened last night to a one hour call in for the forum members at www.cdlofit.com. I listen to sirius 147.

I listen to XM. I like the Rollye James show on XM 165 evenings.
She really talks about truck driver issues. Lots of truckers call her.\
So who else listens to her?
