Delphi SA10035 Roady XM Satellite Radio Receiver

Get your motor running and rock out on the road with the Delphi Roady XM satellite radio receiver--a complete hardware package right out of the box. It comes with everything you need to enjoy the crystal-clear reception of XM satellite radio wherever you roam, including a micro roof-mount antenna, cassette adapter, cigarette lighter power adapter, and mounting bracket. Note that the Delphi Roady XM satellite radio receiver requires a monthly subscription. The Roady receiver is compact and easy to transport. The Roady unit has seven function buttons, a tuning wheel, and 10 number keys. While tuned to an XM channel, the Roady's default display contains information about that channel, song title, artist, and the Roady settings. You can use the tuning wheel to preview the artists and songs currently playing on other channels before deciding whether or not to stay with your current channel. With the TuneSelect feature, you can program the Roady to alert you with a tone and display change when a favorite song (choose up to 10) is played on a channel other than the one you are listening to. You can listen to one station while previewing program information on up to five other channels. Additionally, you can save the song and artist information displayed on the SKYFi radio receiver to help you remember your favorite songs when you hit the CD store. The Roady offers a variety of options for connecting to your vehicle's radio. All options provide excellent sound quality and stereo separation, with the use of the cassette adaptor being most common. XM research and lab results show that for vehicles with a cassette player, using the cassette adaptor maximizes the relationship between sound quality and ease of installation. Direct connect: For vehicles with radio head units equipped with auxiliary audio inputs, connecting the audio directly to the auxiliary inputs of the head unit provides maximum audio quality. Cassette adaptor: For vehicles with a built-in cassette player, using the cassette adaptor for audio is the most popular solution. FM modulator: For a more professional- looking installation, a separately available Delphi FM modulator installation kit can be purchased. Other features include: 30 preset channels Seven backlighting color options Three interchangeable faceplates Roof-mount antenna with single-wire connection What Is XM Satellite Radio?
