You may need to update your S2, I can access the 80's channel fine...
check out this: SIRIUS Satellite Radio - SL2 Update - Wifi
Thank you for the link. I originally updated via Wifi, but I don't think I have got the full update. I must of not left it connected to Wifi long enough. I do like it saying 'Backspin" unlike my other radio. Also this morning the radio seemed to forget that I am a subscriber
Yes. In Internet Radio mode, Backspin appears 100% correct.
Maybe i'm looking in the wrong spot, but I can't find Cinemagic or whatever it's called now online.
I have a new SL-2 and the 2.03 version ... Was just reading this thread and decided to try the wi-fi... I live in an apartment with multiple connectiing availability... So just jumped right on the internet... It blinks the time and internet on an off... I guess its updating
will see... Nothing is saying its downloading a newer version though... I ll just let it go for hour or so and shut off and turn back on... Then check the device area ...
Hey something is happening... I get this buffering thing where the music stops while it buffers then plays again... who knows???

Yes the latest is ZAP is 2.0.5 my sl2 is using that now. When you shut down your radio did you do a full shutdown? You might have to connect your radio to your computer and update it that way.
Okay here is the deal-
I decided to plug my SL-2 into the computer while I had a connection online...
Something updated???
But it wasnt the update to 2.0.5...
Then I decided to go back onto the wi-fi connection and went to service info, well it was downloading, then it went to unpacking, and then installing...
Now the screen just popped up saying Update Complete as described so I suspect I will now have this newer update...
I think something activated internally in the SL-2 with this breif little update when I plugged in online to my laptop that is on dial up(not wi-fi) ???
Last night I was on a wi-fi connection for a good 2 hrs and nothing was going on...
Good ol electronic stuff... Never all the right steps and always some funky glitch...
But I think I figured it out... For now...
Yep ... Got the 2.0.5 but the baseband is still just 14??? Didnt I see 20 somewhere???
Now I went off the internet(wi-fi) to get on satelite and its locked up in some kind of updating mode... Still waiting???
After 5mins stopped now stating it is updating channels...Crap I lost all my channels!!!! Geez!!!
Okay I was unsubscribed... Then it told me to reactivate subscription and while scrolling through the activation screens toward the end I sat for a moment still on Satelite was getting ready to call, something kicked in saying I was updated and subscribed... Then all the channels got re initiated... I turned it back off and now on again and I now have the .20 baseband in the device info...
aaahhhhh...finally I m good with the latest software...
Wanted to give anyone else the rundown of the tribulations since it looked like a few were inquiring...
I had no clue other than the few bits and pieces of posts on this site...
Thanks for the input from fellow members...
