SATELLITE RADIO OVERVIEW
LISTENING TO SATELLITE RADIO
To listen to Satellite Radio, you’ll need to connect either a SIRIUS or XM Satellite Radio tuner (sold separately)
to your satellite-ready receiver. Satellite Radio is available to residents of the US (except Alaska and Hawaii)
and Canada.
Satellite Radio delivers a variety of commercial-free music from categories ranging from Pop, Rock, Country,
R&B, Dance, Jazz, Classical and many more plus coverage of all the top professional and college sports
including play by play games from select leagues and teams. Additional programming includes expert sports
talk, uncensored entertainment, comedy, family programming, local traffi c and weather and news from your
most trusted sources.
Whether you purchase a SIRIUS or XM tuner, you’ll need to activate and subscribe to begin enjoying the
service. Easy to follow installation and setup instructions are provided with the satellite tuners. Whichever
service you choose, there are a variety of programming packages available, including the option of adding
“The Best of SIRIUS” programming to your XM tuner or “The Best of XM” programming to your SIRIUS
tuner, enabling you to enjoy the most popular programming among both services. The “Best of” packages
are not available to SIRIUS or XM Canada subscribers at this time.
Family friendly packages are also available to restrict channels featuring content that may be inappropriate
for children.
