Default Does anyone know of a fix to get the sat display to scroll?

Or if there is going to be a firmware upgrade or something to make it work? I find it really annoying when half the song name gets cut off, whereas the Radio RDS is able to scroll.

Default How do you get the radio to scroll?

I have the Symphony II and it does not scroll. The display performs like your SAT.

Default Agree pretty frustrating

Wish I knew. I think I pushed every combination of buttons possible.

Default What I mean by scroll

What I mean by "scroll" is that the characters will "walk" from righ to left on the display.

My radio displays a word, then displays the next word... If the word is too large for the display, it is broken up. It does not "scroll".

Is that what your radio does?

Default I thought I was the only one!

Yea its aggravating how it works for normal radiom, but not SAT. The RDS scrolls the radio stations and at times, the song titles....but for satellite, if title/artists is too long, then it just gets cut off at a certain amount of characters.

Default Mine does the same thing

It doesn't "truly" scroll and I don't think you can make it "scroll".
