XM SATELLITE RADIO SERVICE
Digital audio entertainment is available through the XM Satellite Radio Service, received by the GDL 69A
Data Link Receiver. XM Satellite Radio offers a variety of radio programming over long distances without
having to constantly search for new stations. Based on signals from satellites, coverage far exceeds land-based
transmissions.
Entertainment audio must be set up with the MFD softkeys.
If problems occur, ensure that the owner/operator of the aircraft has subscribed to XM Radio service, and that
the XM subscription has been activated. If a failure still exists, elementary diagnostic checks of the system are
explained in the appendix section for troubleshooting the datalink receiver.
