Second, it is my understanding that the XM antenna only resides in the
EXTERNAL "smart" antenna, which means if you want to use XM weather, you
are required to use the external antenna. Plus one more cable.


Hmm, I didn't read it that way. I will go back and look again.



It doesn't really matter, because even if the XM antenna is integrated
into the unit, it won't pick up much of an XM signal when it's mounted
on the yoke. You will have to have a remote antenna anyway.
