Times must be pretty tough for tipstir these days.


Thanks for letting me know - HD Radio is free, just have to buy the HD Radio. I didn't know that. Wow !!
AM/FM radio is also free, just have to buy the AM/FM radio.

The trouble with local HD radio is that you get the same thing as the local FM radio staions, including the commercials.

XM radio service is commerical free. Sometimes you get a litte DJ chi-chat or XM radio station ID between songs, but no commercials.
I am not hard up for $60 bucks, but that's a waste for these commercial free radio. I don't mind hearing a commercial on FM I don't even listen to that I got my own SDHC storage for music where I can select what to play or have it play the music. Mine talks like "Resume Playback" in my car. The Honda you just say" Play Card" The female in the car says Play Card. I say turn on AC the female in the car says Turn AC. Anyway the card holds 1000 songs I have it foldered or you can have it play by anyway you want.

Hey it's your money you worked many hours to make that $60 bucks so that's was 6 hours right!
