You can use the Line In connection or use the Sirius phone app via the Bluetooth A2DP connection... I use Power Amp and TuneIn apps with the Asteriod on occasion.. I have a 16 Sd card and ftp to the unit so I rarely use "radio"... when you use the apps via the BT connection the Asteroid function buttons will control the phone next/back etc.. With the line in of course you'd rely on the Sirius control unit. http://www.siriusxm.com/android the site will also show you the other devices you can use sirius on. I guess the only downside to the App versus the real Sirius device is the reliance on wifi/cell coverage and data usage.

I don't know. If so, it's not already installed. But you could download pandora, which is kind of Internet radio.

Yes. There is a plug in the back of the head unit for it and has the Sirius/XM option on the screen.

Its a great little Internet radio. But it cannot login to any service like pandora, spotify, etc. The Sirius Internet requires a web base logon, so the answer is no. You can listen to thousands of free stations around the world that stream their station.

Don't believe so. Sirius and XM, while now a single company, still have pretty incompatible hardware. I think this also applies to remotes, since they're still sold separately.

This radio does not have satellite radio reception such as Sirus or XM.I receives AM, FM and Short Wave. Sorry.

No, but that's a good thing. Compared to the variety and number of quality radio stations on the net-Sirius is CRAP. I tried it for 6 months-the same song 3 days in a row-it was worse than AM. Spend some time-there are fantastic net stations in every genre. Trust me, Sirius is at the bottom of the barrel.

Dear Michelline,I do not know I have never been a Sirius user. So I cannot advise you to how it would work with this unit. I have heard that Sirius is a good type of radio to use but never had a sirius radio so would not know.Jerry Miller

I don't know. I am not using satellite radio. I believe you have to buy a separate XM adapter.

I agree with what Daniel said. He has the exact answer I was going to give. There are many variables you have to consider and to make any radio reliable it must be configured properly.

This unit is Sirius XM ready...connector already exists. I don't use satellite, but it is a nice feature to have. I do use the USB hub to charge my Bionic and iPod as I drive..

The radio is not XM ready. It does not have the connector or builtin control user interface. Unless your XM receiver is stabd alone with it's own control, you should look for radio that is XM ready.

Yes you will need the Sirius module and antenna. They will both mount somewhere behind the radio in the cabinet. Then the Sirius folks can program the system for you or turn it on where it works.

If have had a Sirius antenna plugged into it before this one will work as well.

This is Kevin From ReplacementRadios. Satellite capability is required for this particular interface. You must have a button with SAT or XM on it to use this.

As an owner of three such radios, mine do not... they are all wireless.A cheap wireless router hooked up to your computer, think I paid $20 or $25, and you'll be in business.Great radio for SiriusXM.

Uh, you need to be more specific about this question.If you bought the Sirius adapter and have a valid membership (or if they give you a free try) then you would need to go into the source panel and then select Sirius XM. I don't know what you meant with "automatically"
