Sirius Radio Not Tuning to channels

[pcarlson]

Anyone ever have issues where Sirius will not tune to a station? I have verified that the channels are part of my package and had a refresh signal sent to the radio but channels like 11 and 12 will not tune. There are some others like 100 and 101 that will also not tune. Do you think it is a Sirius receiver problem? Has me baffled. It is the stock receiver and I beleive it is part # 05064075AE.

I am having the same issue. Called Sirius and they re-sent an update signal, but no change (to be honest, their tech support is not very good). My home receiver and my wife's receiver get all the channels, but my truck does not. I have a '06. I will call Sirius tech support again when I have time but would be interested in finding out if any others solved this problem as well.

I spoke to a Sirius rep and he told me that the receiver in our trucks, and many Chrysler vehicles, have a 128 channel limitation. So, if that is indeed correct, that would explain why we cannot get all the channels we pay for. Any tech's know of firmware updates for these receivers?



Edit: I just counted the stations that I am receiving and they add up to 140. So the 128 channel limitation is BS.
