    Hi Guys and Gals

    This radio WORKS with Sirus out of the box - it s the >

    ALPINE CDE-SXM 145BT at any Best Buy or online radio cost 150.00

    --> Pro - Installed - by a shop that installs radios $75.00

    ( NOTE ** installer boosted the Fuse from 10 to 15 )
    also he used the small antenna in the box and -
    POINTED ANTENNA IT - OUT - NOT STRAIGHT UP on the lip of the fuse box
    * so antenna is pointing out 45 degree angle

    https://www.google.com/#q=alpine+cde-sxm145bt+review

    works Nation wide -

    **I like to hear channel 125 - Patriot Radio - this is a good enough reason to have Sirus

    I use the Sirius/XM app on my phone plugged into the AUX jack on my truck's s***-box radio. FREE. No Antenna. And more channels than radios get.

    Alpine is an excellent brand of head-unit. I'm a Pioneer guy, personally, so I'd probably have to finagle a way like @GreenMonster9669 did.

    And the story behind the user name, monster?........ Red Sox fan? I'm sorry. Oscar the Grouch fan? That's cool! Both guesses way off? Let me know. Lol.

    Sirius has opened up all the channels until May 31, any radio will work, subscribed or not. I even get Nascar channel on xm radio, but only until May 31.
