There is one decent station, but it plays the same

music for the whole month of December.

===================================

I thought that station was only on the west coast :-)

I just had a Hertz rental in NY for a couple of days that had Sirius
satellite radio (seriously). It seemed to work reasonably well except
in the Manhattan canyons it would sometimes fade. I'd guess reception
in FL would be near perfect. You can also listen to Sirius on the
internet to get a feel for their music selection.

I just drove the vehicle that I installed the Sirius system in from FL back
to MA.
Other than while in tunnels, I never lost the sat signal or even noticed
that it faded. The unit I got was made by JVC.

The car docking station has both audio outputs and a selectable FM modulator
output. The car radio does not have an aux line input, so I had to use the
wireless modulator.
I found that as I traveled from state to state I would get some interference
if a strong FM station existed on or near the freq that I had set the
modulator to.

I finally took a wrench and removed the car antenna. Perfect quality music,
news and everything after that.

ROTFL!!!!

Well, that's one way to cure the problem.
