Sirius Satellite Radio provides 100 chan-
nels, so called streams, of digital-quality
radio, among others music, sports, news,
and entertainment free of commercials.
Sirius Satellite Radio uses a fleet of high-power satellites to broadcast 24
hours per day, coast-to-coast, in the con-
tiguous US.
This diverse, satellite-delivered program-
ming is available for a monthly subscrip-
tion fee.
For more information and service availabil-
ity call the Sirius Service Center

next to buildings) or near other technologies. In
