XM issue with MyLink radio

Prospect62 · February 2, 2020

Guys, when I have the FM radio on in the truck it has the little buttons for my "favorite" presets along the bottom of the screen. I can scroll through them using the left steering wheel control paddle.

When I flip over to SiriusXM though, the FM radio presets stay there - it doesn't switch to my SiriusXM presets. And if I have the XM radio playing and I hit one of the left steering wheel paddles , it switches my radio back over to FM and starts scrolling through my FM presets.

How, if I'm in XM mode, can I scroll through my XM presets and not have the radio switch back to FM?

I figured it out. Just took me a few minutes of staring at it, haha.

Curious what you figured out ... I always assumed the "favorites" were mix & match, e.g. you have FM and Sirius XM stations together in the favorites. I, like you, would prefer to have FM favorites in FM mode and Sirius favorites in Sirius mode. I commute long distance and it's frustrating to have my satellite and "local" FM stations mixed together. The FM favorites are useless when I'm 75+ miles away.

Yeah that's what I figured out. They are "mix and match". I'm getting used to it.
