Herkguy Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 XM has an option to let a left/right knob push change your presets instead of just moving one channel left or right. I can't find this setting in FM mode, and pushing the knob just moves the frequency .1 over...is there anyway to get the knob move the radio to the next preset?

garypen Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 If the Pioneer engineers would have used logic and common sense in their design, they would have programmed the knob to do track/seek with right/left push and preset up/down with up/down push. They would have also done it across all modes. Of course, that is only if they used logic and common sense, which they didn't. I look forward to the day when "usability" actually becomes one of the design goals of Japanese hardware and software engineers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Herkguy Posted September 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Wow that stinks...getting sick of driving around in the FM screen just so I can skip around presets to avoid commercials... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pkbristol Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I think it makes sense, think about it, if you've got a route planned then it's probably because you're going out of your own area, in which case your presets won't be available, so it meakes sense to search for new stations, and the easiest way to do that is to push the knob left or right.

Herkguy Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Ok so now my XM is going one channel at a time! I can't remember how I ad it going through the presets instead, can anyone remember the setting? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
