Default Quick Sat Radio Question...

Basically, when I am listening to Sirius and I switch to standard radio (or CD) the sudden jump in volume can be extreme, but the volume setting is the same (Sat radio is much quietier). Is this normal?

There is no difference between CD and Standard Radio just Sat Radio.

Default wow, I have an aftermarket XM unit in my car w/blitzsafe and notice no changes in volume

I have an 03 where satellite radio was not an option, so I got an XM installed in my ash tray and use the blitzsafe to run it to the CDC input on the radio. My volumes are consistent between sat radio and CD. Not sure about FM (I haven't gone back to FM since I got sat radio).

Default It's the ONLY thing good about that stupid XM Commander

although I suspect it's the Blitzsafe and not the XM Commander which is why my volume levels are moderated.
