I would like to switch from Sirius to XM. Does anyone know if there is a "black box" which will do this. I tried the best of XM but it still does not have the MLB channels.
Get every SIRIUS channel plus The Best of XM including
Oprah & Friends®, MLB Network Radio, NBA and NHL games, the 24/7 NHL Home
Ice® channel, The PGA TOUR Network, Opie & Anthony, XM Public Radio®
If I'm not mistaken the best of XM gives you the 'MLB channel', but not all MLB game broadcasts. You need full XM to get all the games,
This is correct. You cannot get the ball games like XM. You only get MLB talk radio which sucks. When I bought the truck last week, the salesman assured me I would be able to get the games with the Best of XM.
How come nobody does their own research and then comes on a forum and complains about it? Salesmen in general - don't know crap and are trying to sell you something.

I guess out of a group, you always get a smart ***. OldJeep, I actually did my homework. I asked the proper questions, I was assured that the Best of XM plan included games but that answer was incorrect. Are you suggesting I should have called XM right then and checked? If I asked the salesman if the tires were black should have called the tire manufacturer and asked if they were actually black otherwise if they turned out to be white it would be my fault? OldJeep, wasn't it you that said, "Sure looks to me like the best of XM includes MLB." Looks to me you would have fallen into the same situation since the salesman assured us Best of XM included games.
If you can't come onto a forum and complain about something and look for a resolution, it would be a boring place. OJ, thanks for your time and worthless opinions and information.

Precisely, which is what the sales guy probabally thought. Calling XM? Nope, looking at the Sirius channel list that came with the truck would have told you what you needed to know - not everyone cares about baseball on the radio and it sounds like you knew which particular channels you were looking for.
In any event it looks like you need to replace the radio with an XM to get what you want. The add on link I posted only works with the older radios (something like 2005 and older)
