Default XM Radio
Anybody have the Harmon-Kardon radio with the XM radio module?
I am curious as to the display. Does it display the artist, the song, or both, or does it display the channel?
According to the HD website info it does all of the above. Just trying to confirm as most radios will only display the channel and not the other detailed info.

Thanks in advance!!

I have it. It will display the channel and the artist or song at the same time. It's a nice unit. You get better volume than just plugging an outside XM radio into the aux jack. It's pricey, but I had the dealer throw it in when I bought the bike.

What he said. Mine is set up so that once the song begins, after a couple of seconds, it switches to Artist and time. I use it all the time.

The reception is fine. I only lose signal when I'm driving through a tunnel or if I'm on a long stretch of road with really tall trees on both sides of me. The antennae is in the fairing.

I'm doing a HD GPS and XM install now on my RG. I bought both units off Ebay for less than list for the GPS alone. Ebay makes me nervious but this went smooth.
