SiriusXM

Looks like this radio is not eligible for a free trial, BUT they offer a two month free trial for it anyway.

My 2014 Sunseeker came with it activated. We didn't have to do anything special. We started using the MH the day after we purchased it less than 3 weeks ago and are still on that trip. A couple of days ago our free trial ended. I suppose I should see if we didn't get the full trial.

EDIT: Bad info. I just got off the phone with SiriusXM. They had a free trial for everyone for 3 weeks that just ended. That's what we were listening to. I'm going to go to the SiriusXM.com site and see if my radio ESN is eligible for any free trial. I will report the answer here. My dealer didn't know.

On my 2014 Jayco I had to install a receiver and antenna before I could get programming. If it Sirius ready, you should get one channel that previews your programming available. If you do get it follow the OP to haggle price. My radio is a Clarion and the manual tells you how to do it and the number of the receiver needed. The extra wires from the radio that I got with the motor home have to be plugged into the radio. I did the work myself and just laid the antenna on the dash, seems to work well.

Most of the chassis makers have 6mo or 1 year free trial. I would check with the dealer that sold it to you. Macktee

Select the satellite on the radio, if it ready for activation you will receive one channel that keeps repeating on how to activate your unit.

If it is ready, take my advise when you call, after hearing their offer, tell them you will think about it and call them back. Do this a couple of times to get their best offer for a years service, should be half of what they first quoted.

Unless the satellite tuner has been installed, all it means is that the radio is satellite ready. That implies that the radio has a function that will control the additional satellite tuner.

This will answer your questions and guide you step by step through activation...

button on the side of the radio might be label "satellite" not knowing your unit for sure though. Seems you should be able to because the unit it's self is labeled Sirius/XM. You'll need the model and ser# of the unit though to activate it.

Did not fully understand post. However, you will need to have the SiruisXM service turned on by contacting them and providing the electronic serial number.
