I've had Sirius since January. I signed up back when it was $13 a month and it's a bargain! For many of us, the radio stations suck, it's all trendy, mainstream BS that people like hate.

Plus, I'll listen to the comedy channel (uncensored 147) for hours on end! Try that on normal radio. I have the Here2Anywhere unit, so I can listen while I'm at home too. Hell, you even get a password to listen on the website if you're somewhere like that!

Nice choice!

Paying $10 a month is totally worth having 10-15 channels I really like to listen to. $10 a month is totally worth never having to hear a commercial. I love my xm set up.

Thanks for the pic.

I didn't know you could mount them in an enclosed area. I thought they had to be in the open. The only reason I don't have satellite radio is I don't want a big black antenna on the roof or trunk lid.

I have the same antenna as ASTROEVO. I have mine mounted - or rather hidden - inside the car. No problems with reception unless I'm stuck under a huge underpass in traffic or when I pull in my garage. I'll try to post up a pic.
