Hello everyone,

I just bought a CPO '09 Acura TL w/Tech package. I got the 3 months free through XM radio but I don't have Howard Stern and a few other stations? channels 100 - 106 I believe.

Any idea why this is?

Stew4HD

Yes, you have to get the premium package for that. Call them about it. I got hem to give me the free 3 months of premium but took a lot of talking to them to get it.

It's an upgrade not to have it if you ask me...people lose IQ points listening to that guy.

the only way to get it on xm is to pay for the extra stations which includes Howard. We have sirius radio in one car and the truck-yes even tho they merged they still are separate when it comes to billing and certain stations. I personally am not a fan of Howard but hubby has liked him for numerous years.

howard is a must imo! you gain so much knowledge from him....

nj2pa2nc

sounds like something my husband would say. A must have.

Stew4HD

I had to too! I was spoiled when I had Sirius only in my truck. The down side is that he's only on 3 days a week now and takes more vacations

I hate XM, they too BBC Radio 1 away... No more 1Xtra, no more good electronic music...

Yep, you gots to buy The Howard. He's good, but he's not cheap!

Opie and Anthony are even better than Stern IMHO and are available on regular XM

EazyRider562

Whatever?!?! You sound really ignorant with that comment!

CTACURA23

I sound ignorant by giving my opinion?

Stew4HD

yeah in a way, only cuz the OP did not ask for an opinion, only how to get Howard

Mr Marco

Getting back on track...Besides the poor sound quality, XM CS is the worst in the business. Took three calls to get them to cancel my supscriptions(3) because they kept dumping the call when I refused to accept their "better" offers. They still call my wife weekly trying to "earn" our business.

You don't need Stern to be entertained, there are plenty of other shock jocks offending people for free on FM.

Stay frosty!

My husband needs his Howard and no they might try to imitate but they are NOT as good. I do not mind Howard-I can not stand Robin

Stew4HD

Robin, the drama-queen but she's part of Howard's success and there to stay.

True, Bubba, the-love-sponge is pretty funny but still not Howard nor any other imitator. Bob and Tom on FM is pretty funny but not available everywhere.

I just wish the FCC would focus on attention whores like Stern, and leave music alone.

Stew4HD

Ah yes, another one that has no clue.. You listen to the talking heads that are jealous of Howard? He's a rich ex-radio personality that made it on his own and hiot the big time.

You prefer sensorship, I guess?

What does your response have to do with Stern and Siruis XM?

nj2pa2nc

Howard moved to satellite because of the fcc regulations they had on him on regular (terrestrial as he calls it) radio.

Stew4HD

No kidding. It was THE FCC's focus that caused the move and the fines levied as well.. yeah.. he's had enough focus and he's free from the censorship now

Guys, let's keep this conversation civil. Obviously, there are some strong "pro-Howard" people here. But if someone doesn't share that same opinion, it's OK.


Again....let cooler heads prevail.
