    Default which satellite radio do you use

    As an avid professional football fan, sirius has my vote because they have the entire NFL package available. Great to keep up with your team while you're on the road.

    I'm going with sirius.

    If 'd been aware of ommerical-free radio, I'd have had this long before I became a trucker!

    I chose Sirius because of the programming. Besides gobs of classic rock and oldies stations, weather and traffic reports and trucking news, they have *two* NPR stations, a PRI station and a world news station.

    As a matter of fact, I'm leaving to shop for my radio in a few minutes...

    XM is $9.95 per month, Siruis is $12.95 per month (I think)

    :edit

    Just saw on the XM website, their price is raising to $12.95. So, that changes the concept of going with the lower price.

    You might want to go with XM as I think Sirus may not last too long.
    Err...... hey Greg! What does this flashing red light mean?

    XM here, however, I'm not too pleased with them losing the NASCAR MRN broadcasts after this season. I may have to switch during the off-season!

    I'm going for sirius as well. I'm a huge NASCAR fan and broadcasts will be on sirius starting '07. Good enough reason for me.

    I'vve had XM for almost a year now. I bought the XM Radio "Roady 2". A couple of weeks ago, Delphi sent me an offer to buy a couple of other doo dads and I did! I bought a device that I can place my radio into and make it into a "walkman" type radio. It's VERY cool! It listed for $149.00 and I got it for $20. I also bought the home kit (normally $50) again for $20. The programing is pretty much the same deal as the other network. Its like arguing over GMC's and Chevies. I can also listen to XM radio on the computer using my account info. I also have not listened to "real" radio in quite some time. trying to listen to regular radio on HWY 70 going across to Wichita Falls is a HUGE waist of time.
