I'm looking at adding XM radio to our CS22 this Spring. Has anyone ever done this?

Fixed.
(It was on my list to google XR radio since I had not heard of it thinking it may be something new)

Oh, I knew what you meant. That's called a pot the jus and should never get fixed

If you're radio is pre-installed for it then it's no big deal. Or if you have Bluetooth then just use your phone XM app.

That's because you're from Iowa. It's all good here.

I have tried the last two summers to use the app on my phone. Unfortunately cell service is spotty on our lake so I think I want to make the jump to the old school XM ways. Radio is compatible. Mainly trying to figure out the antenna situation.

Yea some have the antenna on top of the helm or the other side. It should be in the open and that would be my issue is I think it's ugly so I won't add one. Even though it's a tiny Puck thing. Just me. It's a plug in deal and run the ant lead. Then subscribe.
I have music downloaded on my phone so no internet is needed. Makes it easy. Also I break out the 8 tracks in the cassette Convertor sometimes too. They work pretty sweet and then you don't have any of that condensed music. Just pure sound!

SiriusXM has a premonition right now $60 dollars for a year subscription. I renewed my boat today even though I only use it about four months out of the year. They said I could cancel any time and get a refund of the balance not used.

I got a email about it. I just called 855-534 3991 and asked about the $5 per month offer. I got it for my truck and boat at that price.
