Sirius install - channels

I just had the dealer install the Sirius tuner to my A20 on my 2005 CLK coupe.

I was trying to get it to go to a channel above 184, but it won't. Is there some limit in this tuner? The Sirius tech help had no idea why it wouldn't accept channel 198.

Channel 198 is usually blocked by default. You can enable it from the Sirius web site for your account at no charge.

You do have to enable this on your Sirius account. I think then, the next time you switch on the receiver it will update your channels that are available to you.

The Sirius tech insisted that he had enabled 198. My previous tuner received it.

I still think it is the MB tuner since as I enter * 1 9 8 it tunes in 8.

How much did the tuner cost you and what was the charge for the install?

Dealer install was $1,005. Included painting of the antenna to match the paint.

They did a great job.
