Bought the Sirius unit on Saturday and I still am having trouble finding the right station that works well with the unit. I live in the NJ/NY metro area and I tried to use one of the big stations like 95.5 or 100.3, stations I don't listen to. But the signal could not overtake the station's frequency. Please help. I had it professionally installed and the antenna is on the roof of my truck. I have a signal but if I listen to a non-music station, I hear a faint static noise that is annoying. Please help with some FM station that work well for you guys or is there something else wrong? Please help, thanks.
Tuning in to the right FM station for my Sirius radio to work correctly.

Did you receive an FM out antenna booster with your radio? Which Sirius did you get? You need to find the frequency that has the weakest FM signal and use that for your FM mod frequency.

Or, after you figure out that Sirius rules, and you couldn't possibly go back to FM, just remove your FM antenna 
With the sirius unit OFF, try all the frequencies on the dial and select the one with the least noise/fuzz/whistles. Then set the sirius unit to that frequency.
If it drives you batty still, you're going to have to sink more $$ into it and get a headunit with aux in, or a wired FM modulator.

I ordered an FM switch directly from Audiovox for $20. It switches out the external antenna when the Sirius radio is on. No static.
