I was thinking about surprising my husband for his birthday. He has talked about 2 different ones that are merging??? Basically he wants to be able to get FSU football//baseball and NASCAR. I guess they were on different ones but are now becoming one. Do I understand that correctly? What do you purchase? Where?
XM and Sirius are the two that i know of. You can buy those at Best Buy or an electronics store. I have XM, i get NASCAR Radio but i dont think college baseball/football is available on it.
there only is 2 ssystem at this present time XM radio & Siruis eachnhas there own web site and you can check it out and see what each has to offer…and one of them does carry nascar and as for them becoming one..it is still being debated in congress…because it cause a monoply but it might happpen
There are currently two companies providing satellite radio services – XM and Sirius. You are right, they are in talks now to merge, but there may be some government (read anti-trust) issues to get by first. I’m not sure about Florida State sports, but NASCAR is on Sirius this year. It also has a Tony Stewart talk show that is 100% race talk. XM has two satellites, and Sirius has three, although there really isn’t a reception issue unless you are in a major metro area with lots of really tall buildings. Any big box electronics store can sell and install the equipment.
