Hello Folks,

I am new member of the Forum and I am impressed with the technical expertise of Forum members.

From my short visit to this Forum I am aware that there are Forum members who are well versed in the workings of the XM Satellite radio receivers.

Now that using the XMDirect as a PCR is a viable option is it possible to modify the XMDirect for optical an/or coaxial digital audio output?

I am aware that at one of the XM Satellite Forums they offer both an optical and coaxial digital audio output mod kits for the XMPCR but I am unaware if these mod kits will work for the XMDirect. I also believe that these digital audio output kits are overpriced at $75 bucks.

I am hopping that someone can provide a schematic and parts list for the components necessary to build optical an/or coaxial digital audio output for the XMDirect. I believe that there other Forum members who are also interested in modifying their XMDirect for digital audio output but don’t possess the electronic expertise would like to see simple to follow detailed information on exactly how to do that. The XMDirect appears to have more space inside the metal box than the XMPCR so I believe the digital audio output modification doesn’t need to be as compact as the XMPCR and would be easer to accomplish. I hope someone that has the expertise and knowledge on how to modify the XMDirect for optical an/or coaxial digital audio output will be gracious and have the time to provide the necessary information.
