| | hahaha...now that's funny! Why? because I've only been interfered with about 900 times...whenever I drive by someone using XM and my car radio is on a frequency not too far away from one that their wireless system uses! Just goes to show you that the FCC pays attention to the guys with the $$$$. |

So I've put in an order for the free beads man.

| | I've recieved the ferrite bead kits from xm radio and installed them and they work to a degree to stop interference, if the reciever is more that 6' away from the other reciever they do stop all interference.
