"XM Antenna" on my radio display. Can't access Artist or Song using Display button

Well I guess my title is pretty much my issue. It just started a couple of days ago. When using the XM service I always keep the display on the artist, then toggle to song title if I'm curious or snap a quick pic as a reminder to download later.
Suddenly in the display is just says "XM Antenna". At the start of a new song, it will still give Artist, then Title, then back to XM Antenna. Hitting the display button now does nothing.
I'm not sure if this is an issue with my car or an issue with what XM is sending to my unit. Anybody know????
This is a non-nav radio btw......

Bumpage for one last shot.

I called XM today. Talked with Ms English-as-a-secone-language. Love those 3rd world call centers. So helpful!!!!!

Well, it appears to be a radio issue. I found out, quite by accident, that if I press and hold the "6" button down then the function will start working, and my mode button works as it should. This has to be done after every time the car is turned off.
If I hadn't been trying to set a different station to "6" I guess I'd have never found this. None of the other number buttons clears this.
So, no fix, just a work-a-round......

Funny, this issue went away earlier this year for a good month or two. One day I just realized it was working as it should.
But alas, I'm back to pressing and holding the 6 button down to get my song/artist/station info going......
