#24 of 30 'Sat' button on radio by mourghan Nov 20, 2008 (5:55 am)
I just bought a 2007 Subaru used, and there is a 'sat' button on the radio. How do I go about activating this? And will I need to have an antena installed? Sorry if this is somewhere else on the fourm, but I couldn't seem to find the answer to this exact question. Thanks!

Replying to: mourghan (Nov 20, 2008 5:55 am) This is to access the Sirius channels. You need to upgrade the entire radio to (and buy a subscription to ) Sirius. It will include the antenna attached to the upper right inside of windshield.
#26 of 30 need help using sat radio in my legacy ltd 08 by tpatcomcast Jan 07, 2009 (5:01 pm)
hello,   I've been using a sirius sportster model, my wife bought me an installable kit for my legacy   the dealer installed it, but I'm looking for some of the features the sportster had...where's the 'memo' key or the 'band' key? are they not included in this kit? are they hidden somewhere in the radio features?   any help is appreciated.

Replying to: mourghan (Nov 20, 2008 5:55 am) I'm trying to figure this out too. The dealer told me that I had to have the radio switched out, but there's a SAT button right on the radio of my 2009 "satellite ready" outback? It doesn't make sense?

Replying to: m287668 (Mar 16, 2009 10:00 am) "Satellite Ready" means the wiring harness is in the back of the dashboard. You still need the satellite radio "tuner" and windshield-mounted antenna to complete the process. After 18 months, my Sirius satellite is used 4 hours every day.

I'm thinking that this is all I need. Has anyone else attempted to activate a "satellite ready" ready with this?   http://www.xmradio.com/xm-direct/index.xmc
#30 of 30 Installing XM satellite radio kit by parent1 Dec 02, 2009 (8:58 am)
Greetings,   I'd like to install the XM satellite radio tuner into my 08' Outback 2.5i. To save money, I plan on doing it myself. If there is anybody that has done the install themselves (rather than dealer), can you share your experience?   Two questions in particular: 1) Where is the best place to by the XM reciever? It appears that you can buy a Outback specific version: link title or a generic one from XM link title (which I assume you would need an adapter to connect to the head). Can anybody explain the difference?   2) Any unexpected SNAFU's I should worry about while doing the install?   Thanks for any comments and suggestions.
