About the Delphi SKYFi

Delphi's SKYFi system makes it easy for you to enjoy the endless programming variety of XM Satellite Radio at home and on the road! It all starts with the ingenious SKYFi add-on receiver, which features an exclusive five-line display (with adjustable font size) that shows song title, artist, and channel information. The sleek receiver is compact, making it easy for you to transfer it from car to home.
This basic package includes the receiver and a wireless remote control only. For the system to work, you'll also need to order a car kit, a home kit, or Delphi's innovative, portable Audio System boombox (or all three, if you'd like to use the receiver in multiple locations without having to get multiple subscriptions). The kits allow you to hook the receiver up to your car or home stereo system, and include everything you need to receive the XM signal. The Audio System integrates stereo speakers, a high-gain XM antenna, and a dock for the SKYFi receiver, and lets you listen to XM everywhere you go. A subscription to XM Satellite Radio is also required.
Navigation between channels is a breeze you can search by channel number or category using the rotary dial, and program up to 20 presets. Like the song you're listening to and think you might want to buy the CD? You can save the artist's name and song title on the current channel for future reference. Up to 10 different artists' names and song titles may be saved. The receiver also allows you to listen to one station while you preview the programming information on others, displaying five channel numbers and names while you're searching.
XM Satellite Radio brings you radio the way it was meant to be! With over 100 channels of digital-quality music, news, sports, and entertainment for just $9.99 a month, you can enjoy programming from the brightest talents in radio. Since the signal is beamed down from satellites, XM's crystal-clear programming can be heard anywhere in the lower 48 states. If you're tired of hearing the "same old thing," XM is perfect for you.
Antenna adapters might be required if you haven't already done so, please enter your vehicle information, and we'll include them free with your order (if needed).

Overview: This basic package includes the tuner and a wireless remote control only. For the system to work, you'll also need to order either a car kit or a home kit (or both, if you'd like to use the tuner at home and in the car and pay for only one subscription). The kits allow you to hook the tuner up to your car or home stereo system, and include everything you need to receive the XM signal. A subscription to XM Satellite Radio is also required.
XM Satellite Radio: XM Satellite Radio programming features up to 100 channels of digital-quality music, news, talk, sports, entertainment, and children's programming nationwide, many of which are commercial free.
