They’re Out There. The XM Sattelite Radio signal really does deliver Rock and Roll to your home and car. The company's two satellites, named Rock and Roll, beam 10 megawatts of power back to earth. Built by Boeing, these massive structures are positioned 22,000 miles above the earth in a geostationary orbit, covering the US from coast to coast. As an added oomph, a series of 800 repeater antennas are located on the ground, keeping the signal strong in urban canyons (cities). With XM Sattelite Radio you’ll be sure to get clear reception almost anywhere. You already know what to expect from XM Sattelite Radio. They’ve got 68 commercial-free music channels; 32 channels of News, Sports, Talk & Entertainment; and 21 channels of Instant 24/7 Traffic & Weather in major metro areas. And for the time you’re on the road, you can add portable XM Sattelite Radio technology to your package with the Delphi SkyFi ($129 retail). It works in addition to your SkyFi receiver unit at home, the office, or anywhere, but you will also need to purchase either the XM home or car adaptor kit, each one being $69.95. In May of 2004 Delphi Corp. and XM Sattelite Radio introduced the new Delphi Roady 2 - an all new plug-and-play satellite radio receiver. With its compact design, the Roady2 is on average four times smaller than the competing plug-and-play models. The unit also has a built-in wireless FM adapter for easy connection to any car or home radio, a sleek new metallic gunmetal colored body and a choice of seven different backlight colors. Additionally, Roady2 is the first satellite radio receiver to display up to 20 customized stock quotes. Related Articles Listen
