What you need to get satellite radio
By now you should have some idea of which satellite radio service you're interested in — XM or SIRIUS — as well as the type of satellite radio tuner that best fits your needs — plug-and-play, car, or home.
Here's a quick recap of the 3 things you need to get satellite radio: |
|
|
 |
A satellite radio antenna
The antenna picks up the satellite signal anywhere within the contiguous 48 states (satellite radio is not available in Alaska, Hawaii, or U.S. Territories). Antennas are included with plug-and-play kits; but you'll need to purchase a separate antenna for most satellite radio-equipped in-dash receivers, external satellite radio tuners, and home component tuners. |
