and then set your Starmate 8 to transmit on the same FM channel
(steps 6 & 7).
If the signal reception is good, showing at least two bars in the lower left
corner of the display, but there is no Sirius audio, verify that both Starmate
8 and your vehicle’s FM radio are tuned to the same FM channel (steps 6 &
7). Also ensure the chosen FM channel is a suitable one to use in your area
(step 4). Verify that nothing is plugged into the AUDIO connector on the
PowerConnect Vehicle Dock. Refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 82 for
