I did a search on this subject and didn't find anything, but I do remember reading some posts on the subject of XM weather.
I guess now that I'm capable of receiving weather with the 696, I'd appreciate some tips on getting the most benefit from the service.
I realize there are 3 packages available, and all require a $75 initiation fee. The other services are approx $30, $50, and $100 per month depending on what you want to receive.
I'm thinking at this time, since I have the Strike Finder, I could probably get by with the $30 package which doesn't have lightning indication.
Most of my flying now is just local, with hopefully 4 or 5 long trips a year in the future.
I remember reading that you can possibly turn the service on and off as needed without having to pay the $75.
Would appreciate any tips that our RV experts could enlighten me and others with.
Thanks
Jack
