Re: satellite radio
I bought a mifi for XM on Ebay for some ridiculous price, like $59 I think.

Re: satellite radio
High List Members, I have to make this quick because my bus is on the way to pick me up for work. But however, I too have a question about satellite radio. I'm wanting to get an XM receiver that's made primarily for home use. Someone at XM suggested to me the Polk Audio receiver. From what I'm told, it has an on screen display. But it has to be hooked up to your TV set in order to see the on screen menus. I am also told that it comes with a remote control. Does anyone know anything about these kind of receivers? If so, how is one of these receivers setup or modified to be user friendly for a blind person? Thanks in advance.

Re: Satellite Radio
I'm thinking of switching to Sirius, but I have until March, I believe, until my XM I prepaid for last year expires. I like the idea of the new shows like daily source code and the other budding new guys, interesting to see if they make it. It would be nice to hear stuff like Tom Martino or Handel on the Law. I know that Sirius has CourtTV and the discovery channel, neither of which XM has. I think XM may do better in the music department, don't think O and A are as big a hit as one thought, they seem kind of boring, maybe Stern's a little better. - Original Message - From: Gary Petraccaro [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

I started with XM, but got Sirius for the college sports after Real Player was dropped by College Sports TV. I have dropped the Real Player college sports stuff, infact I dropped all the Real player stuff, wasn't using it. I found the Sirius quality the best until a few days ago. It seems that the XM quality audio wise has improved. If I could only afford one, I would stick with XM because of their wider choice of music. XM now has the NHL and will be the exclusive distributor of the NHL in 2007.Both have their strong points but if I could only have one I would have XM.

Re: Satellite Radio
Depends also where you live. For example, I live in the DC area. I had Sirius for about a year because they seem to have better programing, however their repeater system wasn't as extensive down here as XM's, so I switched to XM because I didn't have an unobstructed view of the sky and needed the repeater system. Sirius does carry more sports like the NBA and NFL and more college football than XM. XM does carry some college football but not as much as Sirius. Sirius also has a few more talk and other channels like Courttv Radio, only I don't off hand remember what they are. On the other hand, XM does carry baseball, and this is just my opinion, but their channel lineup does seem to be better organized. XM used to be cheaper than Sirius, but it isn't any more. I think it depends on what part of the country you live in. If you were a sports fan or a talk radio fan then you should go with Sirius, unless you live in the DC area or realy want the baseball.

slight correction, was Re: Satellite Radio
Hi Just a slight correction. Sirius is spelled s,i,r,i,u,s. It's named after the star in the sky, also known as the dog star. The company logo is a little dog.

To me, XM radio is a much better service, but it's all in what you want. If you like Major League Baseball, Opie and Anthony and a wide selection of music and talk, xm is your service. If you like the NFL and more of the popular tunes, and Howard Stern coming in January, then you want Sirius. At 12:45 AM 11/6/2005, you wrote: What's the current situation in satellite radio?

Re: Satellite Radio
Hi The message that is flashing is telling that trafic reports for pixburg and detroit are les than 4 minutes away or something to that affect. When this happens I can not do anything with the remote except turn it of and back on again and so I have to wait it out for a few seconds and all is well again. If you could figure oout how to turn this off that would be a big hlp.

Re: Satellite Radio
If you want everything you mentioned you'd better buy both services. Sirrius has the NFL and some college football with the south eastern conference. XM has MLB plus big 10, acc and pac 10 in college football. Both have the NHL untill 2007 when it becomes exclusive to xm. XM now has exclusive rights to Air America Radio while both carry the Ed Schultz show.Both services have the Dave Ramsey show. I'm not sure who has the exclusive rights to what show in conservative talk.

Re: satellite radio
I just bought the Delphi Miphi, and it's very cool. It is a little pricy, but when you consider all you get for the price, it's well worth the investment. You have to buy so much extra, and this includes everything you would ever need, and I mean everything. So far, it is user friendly as well. I own both an XM and a sirius, and I like both for different reason. But as far as signal goes, you can pick it up no matter where you live in the lower 48. - Original Message - From: Scott VanDeWalle [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2005 22:08 Subject: Re: satellite radio This is a very good article.

Subject: Satellite radio receivers Hi, everyone! I just got my Sirius receiver today and listened to the preview channel. I got the home kit and receiver. It's a little bulkier and heavier than the XM radio, and the buttons on the remote and receiver are laid out differently. I'm going to go ahead and activate tomorrow and I won't have to do that on moving day. All home receivers flash the i d number, so you have to have sighted help to read it off to you. I did not go for the computer version of the receiver because I do not have enough u s b ports; I only have two of them; one is being used by the scanner and the other by the XM pcr. The Sirius receiver has a regular power cord with three-prong plug where XM has that bulky, heavy adapote plug. The one for the boombox is heavier than the one for the home adapter kit. All those box adapters make it combersome on a power strip. I'm anxious to check out their oldtime radio, folk channel and other music and talk choices. Who knows? I might find some programs I like a lot there, too. I'm keeping my XM. It's still my top choice.
