it uses its built-in FM transmitter to wirelessly transmit the signal to an empty frequency on your FM dial. The device supports more than 100 frequencies, so even users in the busiest radio markets should be able to find several static-free channels. Once installed, listeners will have access to the full XM menu of music, sports, talk, news, children's, and entertainment programming, all without having to listen to a single commercial. The Roady XT also offers 21 advanced traffic and weather channels--yet another reason XM was named best radio service at the 2004 Billboard Digital Entertainment Awards.
To make the listening experience more informative, the Roady XT displays the channel name, artist name, and song title for each XM channel on the bright, high-contrast screen, which boasts seven vivid backlighting colors. Complementing the track info is the TuneSelect feature, which alerts listeners when their favorite songs and artists are playing on a specific channel. Meanwhile, sports and finance fans will delight in the customizable sports and stock tickers; the former runs through the latest scores and schedules for both college and the pros, while the latter keeps track of up to 20 stocks at once.
All the features come bundled in a sleek, innovative housing that's designed to ensure high sound quality while taking up a minimum of space. The diminutive size (it measures a mere 3.7 by 2.2 by 0.61 inches) fits easily in most jacket pockets or purses. This not only helps protect against theft, but also makes it convenient to bring the Roady XT inside for home use (requires the Roady XT home kit).
So don't waste another moment listening to cliché-ridden commercial radio--join the XM revolution today with the Roady XT.

Roady hits the road:
Bought it, installed it, went on a 1800 mile trip and played it constantly.
No problems figuring it out and it works perfectly.
Crap:
It switches stations on it's own. Sometimes won't turn on. Horrid unit. Delphi support is no help. DON'T BUY!
Roady XT:
Very disappointed with this unit. Could not get it to work unless I used the cassette adapter. I would not buy a Roady again and I would not recommend it to anyone else.
Service O.K. But modulator is VERY weak.:
I purchased the newer model 'Roady' to replace the earlier model. This one has an extremely weak modulator which I need to find a remedy. The older model broadcast a decent signal that could be picked up within 50 feet on other radios and personal sound devices. This newer model broadcasts a signal about three inches. The plugs have changed and the older modulator cannot be used with the newer model Roady.
Needless to say I am very disappointed in the performance so far.
