Satellite Radio

July 12, 2003

In America they have the xm and sirius satellite radio systems and Europe/Asia and Africa have Worldspace.

Does anyone know if there are plans for a europe only system?

I live in a poor reception area and really like the idea of having a satellite radio system in my car tuned into my favourite stations.Also not losing the signal because you have gone to far away from the station transmitting the signal and then have to switch to a station playing rubbish.

Satellite seems the way to go.

I live in a good reception area in general but with all the country roads and hills then that can affect the reception at times.

I bet it's on it's way at an mad £££ . Might have an affect on the listening figures of some local stations though if everyone in the North, for example, can tune into Capital Radio say....

Then again Capital own shed loads of the local stations around GB anyhow.........
