When you have the sonic hub hooked up the menu shows up along the bottom of the screen. Hold the pages button down to change the active window, which is the one with the orange box around it, until the orange box is around the sonic hub box along the bottom of the screen. If you have an 8 or 10 you can use the quick access keys to seek, adjust volume or what ever. If you have a 5 or 7 hit menu and change the items you want.

Remember that which ever screen has the orange box around it is the active window. When you hit menu the menu come up for the active window.

Thanks Ken.....Really Appreciated the help.

One suggestion maybe you could pass on to Lowrance....They need an update with the current Sirius/XM channels. Their line-up is different than what Lowrance has labeled. Just a suggestion and since they never get back to you through the support I was hoping you could pass it along.

Do you have the Sonic Hub interfaced with an XM/Sirius receiver? The Sonic Hub on it's own is an AM/FM receiver with iPhone, iPod, usb capabilities. If you want XM/Sirius reception you will need to add the Sirius Weather antenna to your boat which will interface with the Sonic Hub and get a subscription.

Click on this link and click on Features to see a complete description of the Sonic Hub.

I do have Sirius and I love the SonicHub....one of the best purchases I have ever made for my ride. But the channel line up that Lowrance has is slightly different than the line-up of channels Sirius has...same channels but the labeling is off. Just a suggestion....beyond that I would recommend the SH to everyone whol oves to listen to music or comedy or sports or news..... :mrgreen:

Hey Justin,

I just talked to one of my friends and on his Kenwood Sirius receiver the list of channels is wrong too so it might be something with Sirius. Lowrance is going to forward this information to see if it is something that can be addressed. It's not a Lowrance issue. Just check your unit every once in a while to see if someone was able to do something for us.
