In order to make room for this exciting new programming, Open Road will move from ch. 168 to ch. 171 and we will no longer carry Club 82 (ch. 82),
C-Wave (ch. 105), Highway 15 (ch. 15), Lite (ch. 24), Radio Taj (ch. 104), WSIX (ch. 11) and XM News (ch. 120).
Furthermore, our channel lineup is grouped into different categories (e.g., Rock, Country, News) that appear on your printed channel card and are part of the XM radio channel navigation system. We are re-categorizing the following channels and adding a new category as well.
On the Rocks (ch. 33) will move from Hits to Jazz & Blues (ch. 76).
Ethel (ch. 34) will move from Hits to Rock (ch. 47).
Fine Tuning (ch. 111) will move from Classical to World (ch. 104).
ABC News & Talk (ch. 164) will move from Variety to News (ch. 124).
The Torch (ch. 31) and The Fish (ch. 32) will be moved into a new "Christian" music category.
Some subscribers may have the presets on their XM radio set to one or more of the channels affected by these changes. Please note that if you have a preset on your XM radio programmed to a channel that is moving - your preset will still access that channel at its new location.
A new XM channel lineup card will be mailed to current subscribers in late August.
