Cheap way to get SiriusXM

I would be hesitant to use one that used an FM modulator to play thru an open FM channel on your radio. I had an iPod dock that used that technology.

That could mean having to search for a new open channel multiple times on each day's travel. And in a densely populated area, finding a clean channel could sometimes be a challenge.

And don't forget, you have to pay a yearly subscription fee.

Very close to my thoughts. I am not a fan of FM modulators unless it ia at a fixed location.

You might think about a In dash

I had something that played thru an FM modulator and when I got near baltimore or DC every channel had interference.

I forgot about those shortcomings, BB_TX. The unit I listed has a 3.5mm output jack and cable but I'm not sure if a 2001 radio will have an AUX jack.

Sold on AmazonThe Sirius Stratus 7 dock and play should work for your application. It has a built in FM modulator.

Get an XM radio with an FM modulator built in. You tune the MH radio to one of a few frequencies at either end of the dial where there is no FM station, like 88.1 or 107.9, then set the XM receiver to transmit on that same frequency.

There are adapters that mount between antenna and radio that will give you a mini plug. Then using a portable like the Roady to plug in. Then you choose an unused fm position to get music.
