Same here.&nbsp\\; Can't seem to dial the Sat in without destroying the sound quality of the FM/CD.

I have the Sirius Starmate and I went through the Sirius menus and turned up the output to the maximum from there.&nbsp\\; I have had no problems or issues.&nbsp\\; If you are talking about the "built in" XM then I have no idea and apologize for wasting your time.&nbsp\\;

BOOSTEROOO....the less expensive way to go.&nbsp\\; I've got one inline between my Sirius unit and the Aux. port on the front of the radio. Makes all the difference in the world. &nbsp\\; http://www.boosteroo.com/

Have a Sirus Starmate on my 2005 Ultra&nbsp\\;into the Aux port - works fine, have volume at about 60% when cruising and is loud enough.&nbsp\\; No difference in volume setting when using the radio.
