Yo!! Jaffa Kearns!!
 

You have XM right?

Curious about something. Have you noticed a decrease in satellite
signal level recently - like, say, within the past month or so?

I noticed this a while back, then saw that the FCC is going after
Sirius and XM for power level infractions - both terresterial and
space. Apparently, both HAD been exceeding their designated power
output.

Just curious.

Haven't noticed anything unusual here in central Florida with XM.

Haven't noticed a performance decrease in northern Virginia.

Just noticed my response didn't propagate......

Anyway.... I traded in XM for Sirius. XM always had a stronger signal
Sirius. I don't think I have noticed any degradation in performance
lately.

I've noticed, on several receivers, that Sirius can be lost by going
under a bridge..... (that *never* happened with XM)

Everytime I visit a mall (not that often, thank goodness), there are
pitchmen in kiosks selling XM or Sirius or whatever, and I am still
trying to figure out why I would want to pay for this stuff. When I
listen to radio, it is almost always an NPR affiliate with news or the
kind of music I prefer, and if I really want to listen to only the music
I like, I have my iPOD. Howard Stern is NOT on my list of "have to hears."

So what's the big deal?

It is nice, when on a trip out of the area, to be able to listen to what
you want without having to search for new channels every seventy miles.
That's the advantage of XM. If I want to listen to 60's music, or Air
America for 350 miles non-stop, I can do so. Without XM, I can't.


Aha. But with my ipod, I'm my own DJ.

Air America doesn't get transmitted to your ipod.

The 4Runner should arrive Thursday. Know anyone who wants a pickup?


Got a hitch receiver? My 4Runner needed a receiver with a 2" drop for my
Loadmaster trailers.

It's coming with the tow package. I've not seen it yet, so I can't tell you
what the package looks like.
