Re: XM Satellite radio in Jeep Liberty
Hi You,
Ya know... I just don't know.
Particularly in my situation.
It goes like this. I bought the Liberty, activated the radio. It has a
specific number on/in it and they have you press a key combination to get it
when you register. Then they do something at the Satellite service location
that turns it on to receive more than just their promo channel.
Ok, so THAT stereo unit's cd changer went bad and was replaced on warranty.
I never activated the new one, but it works. Then, the Rooobeee- kahn came
with a single disc changer and I wanted the 6 disk. The dealership asked me
if I would let them just put the one in from my liberty. I agreed since it
was only about a week or two old. Again, it still got the signal with no
action taken from me.
Since the first one was returned I have been unable to login to my Sirius
account (they give you one free year with the purchase of the vehicle) with
my old information.
I'm hoping that somehow it slipped through the cracks. That would be less
than honest I know, but I'd still love a free subscription.
I guess if it stops working, I'll find out soon enough!
Actually, now that I think of it, when I activated the first one, they asked
me for billing information. Name address and so on. So they must have some
sort of record keeping and then the ability to contact the radio via
satellite (like DishNet TV) to turn it off.

Thanks - murky at best. I just wonder how exactly they do it and keep track
of what to turn off and how to do it. I keep wondering.

Re: XM Satellite radio in Jeep Liberty
Every radio has an internal serial number.
Imbeded into the digital signal they awake your radio's brain
by sending the serial number over the satelite,
then command it (your radio) to turn off.
Same way as a pay tv box.
