Does anyone know if the 2005 RF package is Satellite radio ready. I have a SAT button, but know service. If I buy a antenna, can I easily plug it into the back of the radio, or is there more to it than that?

Sounds like you are in the same boat as I am. The Sat button pretty much makes it plug and play, but we have to buy the hardware to play with. Meaning, a Sat receiver and an antenna.
The best online price I've come across is here.
If memory serves me correctly, we don't need to buy the brackets - there is a post on here somewhere that shows how another member used existing hardware.

Actually all the 6 disc head unit wether RF or not is sat. ready, even if you don't have a sat. button. You will need to buy the sat. radio and antenna.

The RF system has a cable that goes under the driver side dash and also connects to the back of the RF HU. It uses Nissan's unique N-BUS connector, so you need a Sat receiver designed for the N-BUS connector. You can use non-Nissan receivers that connect via the AUX jack or through an FM modulator. Some of these alternatives have a better display, but do not interface with the steering wheel controls. The FM modulators have inferior sound quality versus N-bus or AUX connection. (Please investigate the high frequency limits of FM modulators before attempting to dispute this fact.)
