Does anyone knows if we get a free 3-month subscription with our JENSEN sat-ready radio? I tried using it yesterday but I could not get any sirius signal. I asked because my SUV came with a sat-ready system and it included a 3-mos free XM subscription. Thanks!

You know I have found the "Sirius Ready" portion of our radio very interesting, we tried get a satellite signal when we first brought the boat home and little did I know it is hardly "Sirius Ready". It seems it needs another component to truly be "Sirius Ready", http://www.turtlemar...dlp2500rtl.html. Did yours come with this?

I was a little disappointment to find out that I would have to purchase another component to actually take advantage of Sirius radio. We also don't have the marine antenna mounted anywhere on the boat so this is one other thing we would need to purchase to pick up a signal, http://www.turtlemar...pearesra25.html.

No wonder I was able to get the sirius radio # but I could not enter the code! I'd check and let you know. If I don't have it- I sure need that component. DARN! I thought it's also READY. Oh well, good thing I have a portable XM radio. I hooked it up using the AUX input. I just don't like all the cables sticking out! Better than nothing, right? And yes, much better than spending $$ for the sirius box plus antenna!

I agree, I believe it is much better than have to spend the extra money. This is kind of a "false promise" when it says "Sirius Ready". We are going to end up doing the same thing, just using our portable Sirius receiver that we use in our vehicles.
