can we get serius channel 781 in our car

No, you cannot receive "Serius Channel 781" in your car because that specific channel number does not exist. SiriusXM satellite radio channels are numbered within a defined range, typically from 1 to around 400+ for its primary music, news, sports, and talk stations. The number 781 falls far outside this operating range.

The confusion is understandable. You might be looking at a preset number on your car's radio display, not the actual channel number. Your car's stereo system allows you to save your favorite SiriusXM channels to preset buttons (e.g., preset 1, 2, 3). It's possible you previously saved a channel to preset button 7 and then another to 8 and 1, making the display show "781" as a preset sequence, not a channel.

To find the actual channel you're looking for, the best method is to use the Search function on your SiriusXM radio. Use your car's stereo tuning knob or voice command (if equipped) to search by the channel's name, like "The Highway" or "NBA Radio." You can also browse the categories. Once you find the station, note its actual channel number, which will be a much lower number.

If you no longer have access to your car's manual, you can always visit the official SiriusXM website. They have a complete, updated channel lineup that you can filter by category. This is the most reliable way to see all available channels and their correct numbers.

That's not a real channel number, so you won't be able to tune to it. SiriusXM channels go up to the 400s at most. You're probably seeing a preset number, not the station number. Just use the "Scan" or "Browse" feature on your car's screen to flip through the actual stations. You'll find what you're looking for by name, not by a number that high.

Think of it like TV channels. You wouldn't expect to find channel 781 between 2 and 13, right? It's the same with satellite radio. The station numbers are much lower. That "781" is almost definitely a preset slot you've created. Go back to your main satellite radio menu, select "Music" or "Sports," and scroll through the list. You'll see the real channel numbers and can find your station that way.

Here's a simple way to solve this:

1. Press the "SAT" or "SiriusXM" button on your stereo to ensure you're in satellite radio mode.
2. Instead of entering numbers, turn the main tuning knob. This will scroll through the available channels one by one.
3. As you scroll, the channel's name and number will display on the screen.
4. When you find the station you want, press and hold a preset button (1-6) to save it. This avoids the "781" confusion in the future.
