Default XM Question

I have a 2007 Tahoe provided to me from where I work. There is no antenna on the roof which begs the question.Is my radioXM equiped?

Thanks

FM is in rear right window. XM/Onstar is on roof. The Onstar antenna may or may not have XM inside. I don't think you can tell by looking at antenna.

just hit the band button on the radio...if it says XM after fm1 fm2 and am..... it has it.
the xm antenna is built in with the onstar GPS and Cell antenna so you cannot tell by just looking at it
