Tuning of Sports "Favorites"

[pictone]

When I received my Genesis last month, I set up the Favorites section of the AV system with all of my teams, in this case the Miami Dolphins. I started the car yesterday and behold, a message pops up saying "One of your favorite teams is playing, would you like to tune in?" So, I touch the softbutton on the screen, to be rewarded with the Dolphin game on AM radio. Unfortunately it was en Espanol! What I thought would be a very cool feature is of little use.

You will get multiple pop ups for the Dolphins if their game is broadcast on more than one station. You would have eventually received a pop up for an english broadcast.

I live in L.A. but follow the St. Louis Cardinals on Sirius/XM. You never know what XM channel their game will be on. The pop up automatically selects the correct channel which is very helpful to me. I love the feature.

If you live in the town of your favorite team this feature isn't real valuable. You can pre-set the AM or FM channel that broadcasts in your town.

Lo siento mucho.
