Satellite Radio

glowtanning530 · 02-28-2006, 10:14 AM

I know there have been a few threads in the past re: this topic , but I wanted some advie. As most of you already know, I have been making huge changes to a small salon I bought in Spetember. I have my first upgrade bed coming Monday the 6th! Its an Ergoline... but it has no radio in it, like my current Tan America's. I am wondering if it might be a cool selling point to offer satelite radio in that room. Has anyone else done this? Is it a selling point? Sirus or XM? Did you get a boom box or have a reciever installed in the room? Do you limit the station seletion? Thanks for any imput

I have Xm in all my rooms it does not always come in so I also have a cd changer hooked up too...

I use XM through AOL radio for free with one station that is piped into all rooms and lobby. Just keep it to a pop station to please all.

XM....what a joke. Those peoples is crazy over there...although both are good Sirius is supreme. Ol school MTV DJs, Stern (alone is worth owning the 3 I have now), they have like 8 rock stations, more than enough pop stations. The 80s station is probably the most popular along with classic rewind (70-80s rock).

Get the S50 and you can record every song you like and then when your playlist is a few hundred deep, forget the live feed. Play your own mix.

Just too cool.

free XM is good though

Kinda expensive but, the Tan Friendly Broadcast Network will sell a ton of lotion for you. The only commercials are about lotion and they give info on the tanning process, the benefits of smart tanning, etc. Almost like subliminal messenging.

For the techy challenged, how does that work?

I have Sirius hooked up through my beds and it works out ok. My biggest annoyance with Sirius is it doesnt always come in. Like if there is a cloud, forget it it drifts in and out and drives me insane.

knxtan...I'm really interested in that...I think it would be a good idea, I mean really why waste money on other sruff, when YOU are in the tanning business. I think I saw them in Orlando, but how expensive are they?
