XM satelite radio question
I've got the factory XM satelite radio in my 1SB equipped C6 and have both XM bands programmed with various channels. Trouble is, when in the XM2 band, I can't get back to XM1 without first toggling through both FM bands and the AM band to get there!
Has anyone figured out a way to toggle between XM1 and XM2 without having to go through both FM bands and the AM band to do so?

You must be referring to XM's with the NAV package. I don't have the NAV package, hence no screen. It's the standard Bose system that comes with the 1SB package, with XM and without NAV (instead, it has the six disc in-dash CD player). Any suggestions with that setup? Thanks for the help in advance.

XM1 and XM2 are the same - same channels in both of them. Having 2 bands just gives you 12 preset buttons instead of 6. There's really no other reason to switch back and forth between XM1 & XM2, except when you're programming the reset buttons, and then only if you have more than 6 channels you want to store with the presets.
Just realized you would have to switch back & forth if you had more than 6 presets. I do, but I hardly ever use the second set of presets.
As Emily Latella would say, "Nevermind." I'll look at the book some more to see if there's a way.
Ignore my first paragraph.
